COME JOIN US for in our ongoing series of off-kilter variety shows, featuring performance artists of all disciplines, from poets, to actors, to musicians and singers, dancers and stand-up comics! Maybe a mind reader? A fire-Eater? Contortionist? Who knows! It's a space where Magic can and does happen.
Come early and set out a picnic meal and any libations that tickle your fancy. Relax and have some fun with people who perform because they love performing. This is a Pay-What-You-Can show. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. Proceeds go to replenish our General Fund, which is used to bring in professional artists, and for upkeep and equipment upgrades. We can make the venue wheelchair accessible, BUT ONLY WITH ADVANCE NOTICE, so please inform us of any special mobility needs. As this is a private residence, we know you will treat it with the respect it deserves so we can continue to bring live performances to the Seabright neighborhood.
Please note that this is a SMOKE FREE venue, with a designated smoking area on the front porch. We are sorry, but NO DOGS PLEASE. This is an event for humans. As we are nestled in a residential area, you may need to park a block or two away. (Please be considerate of our neighbors, so we can continue right human relations with them.)
Act 1 begins at 4:30 PM. Really. It does. Be on time.
HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE, FRIENDS! A GOOD TIME WILL BE HAD BY ALL. And bring yer posse!
YOU ARE INVITED to JOIN US for the the 3rd in our ongoing series of off-kilter variety shows, featuring performance artists of all disciplines, from poets, to actors, to musicians and singers, to comics, to magicians! Maybe a mind reader? A fire-Eater? A contortionist? Who knows! We shall see. It's a space where magic can (and does!) happen.
Your EMCEE for the afternoon: KEVIN KEELAN, with stories to make you smile. Hear some stand-up comedy from PAUL DRESCHER, and some music from JIMMY KELLY, see some expressive dance from duo MIRANDA JANESCHILD & KIRK GLASER, listen to a story from JONATHAN HULCE, enjoy music from singer-songwriter JONATHAN BLISS, humorous tales from RITA WADSWORTH, the electric guitar stylings of JIM GREENE, and some very cool live looping grooves from MAX BORTNICK.
