What do you mean by “misfit”?

We mean someone who doesn’t fit the mold and we’re inclusive about the diverse experiences that can create that feeling. This includes, but is certainly not limited to: growing up as a the outcast, having a crazy family, unusual upbringing, wild life experiences and choices, personal upheaval because of DNA surprise, etc. You’re part of the community and we welcome you.

The features standup and variety acts, including characters. The audience also submits stories that are read anonymously (and lovingly).
