For Connie and Doug, Tuesdays mean date night at The Little. But yesterday, was not a typical date night for the couple. Instead of trailers before the film, a video of Doug appeared on the big screen. In front of the audience, Doug had a single question for his love: “Will you marry me?” She said yes! Congratulations Doug and Connie! #ALittleLove #DateNight

RIP Penny Marshall, an icon and trailblazer.
