Good Medicine - A Night of Native Stand-Up

After selling out venues throughout the country, the smash-hit, all-Native comedy show, Good Medicine, returns to Cal Shakes for a one-night-stand of stand-up! Hosted and produced by comedian Jackie Keliiaa (Netflix) the showcase features the best and brightest Native comedians across North America. Actor-comedian Tatanka Means, noted for his appearances in Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” (2023) and Kevin Costner’s “Horizon: An American Saga” (Part 1 in theaters this June), will headline the show, performing alongside comedians Brian Bahe (Comedy Central) and Dakota Ray Hebert (Just for Laughs). Don’t miss this nationally acclaimed showcase featuring fresh and diverse Native voices.

Doors open at 6 p.m., leaving plenty of time for guests to explore the Native artisan market, savor tasty food and refreshments and enjoy live pre-show music before the show begins at 8 p.m. Vendors participating in the artisan market include Kirbear Yurok Designs, Turquoise Hogan Creations, Where the Land Meets the Sky Studio and Ihoo Taloowa Beads. The comedy show is expected to last 70-80 minutes. A dance party hosted by DJ Interval will follow immediately after the show.

The Bruns Amphitheater offers a selection of food, wine, beer and other refreshments for patrons to enjoy. “Good Medicine” is generously sponsored by Sogorea Te’ Land Trust, Indian Health Center of Santa Clara Valley, Google’s Aboriginal & Indigenous Network (GAIN), IllumiNative, Native American Health Center and Cal Shakes.
