Event
There You Are
An evening of comedic performance crafted by some seasoned talents, Saturday, April 18th at 8:00. Behold:
Groomed for Success is Beth Lisick and Tara Jepsen. They will ass-clown around as always and if you get out of this without nudity you'll be lucky. Two sets of characters will show up, no tellin' whom. Probably Carole and Mitzi.
Silas Howard! Silas Howard is a filmmaker, musician (Tribe 8) and tall-tale teller whose films (ByHook or By Crook, What I Love About Dying & How Do I Say This?) screened at Sundance, SXSW and Disneyland (strange but true). Howard's writing is also featured in the anthologies, "Without a Net: Growing Up Working Class" and "Live Through This: On Creativity and Self-Destruction", as well as the feminist/queer artists' journal, "LTTR: Positively Nasty."
Erin Markey!
Southeastern Michigan: the hot-bed of the recession. What's a Michigander like Erin Markey to do while waiting in line for soup? Write a musical about Michigan strip clubs. It's the only thing we CAN do in times like these. Erin Markey performs excerpts from her solo musical Puppy Love: A Stripper's Tail and her new tele-musical The Dardy Family Home Movies by Stephen Sondheim (by Erin Markey). Not a fan of showtunes? She'll also remove a small buffet of performance art archival objects from her vagina**.
**This piece was packaged in a facility that handles showtunes.
