“I can confirm the stunning and salacious rumors: in her personal time, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is indeed a supporter of the performing arts (gasp!) and, to the dismay of a select few, enthusiastically enjoyed a weekend performance of Beetlejuice, which the Denver Post itself described as ‘zany’, ‘outrageous’, and a ‘lusty riot,’” Sexton wrote in a statement.

He went on to say “appreciates the Buell Theatre’s strict enforcement of their no photos policy and only wishes the Biden Administration could uphold our border laws as thoroughly and vigorously.”

Although she was kicked out of the performance, he claims that she “strongly encourages” everyone to see “Beetlejuice” and praised the show’s “fantastic cast, tremendous visuals and plenty of loud laughs.” He also passed along a “gentle reminder to leave their phones outside of the venue.”

“It's true, I did thoroughly enjoy the AMAZING Beetlejuice at the Buell Theatre and I plead guilty to laughing and singing too loud!” she wrote. “Everyone should go see it if you get the chance this week and please let me know how it ends!”

One user commented, “You shouldn't recommend things you didn't get to see the end of, Lauren. Like musicals you were kicked out of. Or high school.”
