Lovers of the absurd! Prepare for a rightful night full of the odd, the funny, the kooky, and the delightfully weird. This gonzo variety show is designed to satisfy your silly soul, bringing together three wildly imaginative performers for an evening of clever music, absurd comedy, and joyful chaos.Event is for all ages, but expect some PG-13 level material; oblique references and Shakespearean-style innuendos.
Home Visitor (Utica, NY) delivers kooky, clever, nutty, and witty original music with wry, quirky songwriting. Featuring Mordachai Rosenblatt on guitar, Jade “Tooth” Weiss on trumpet, and Colin Jessen-Jewett on drums—plus omnichord, kazoo, nose flute, and other delightfully strange instruments—Home Visitor is known across Central New York for their legendary April Fools and Halloween shows, always packing in playful aural and visual shenanigans. Their debut album Welcome releases April 2026.
Jolly Joe Jester (New Paltz, NY) is an eccentric performer, improviser, and occasional motivational speaker whose unbounded jolly spirit lights up stages across the Hudson Valley and New York City. A musically talented entertainer and storyteller, Joe invites audiences into a world of imagination, wonder, and joyful participation through music, improv, and spontaneous shenanigans.
Ted, An Impressionist (Troy, NY) lives by his mama’s advice: “When you meet new people, always make a good impression.” Ted performs an unforgettable lineup of impressions—dogs, cats, birds, chimps, ghosts, vegetables, chickens, and more—so many that they’ll leave a deep impression on your mind. A staple of Northeast and NYC comedy stages, Ted also produces gonzo-friendly shows like Kook Comedy, Bronco Brad Dang Tootin’ Good Time Show, and Gonzo Gala.
Come for the absurdity. Stay for the laughter. Leave delightfully mind-boggled and grinning.
