"Wack or Woke? Andrea Coleman Judges the law" is a comedy show where a black woman is finally in charge of the law. There has never been a black woman on the US Supreme Court, this show serves as a comedic remedy. Real life lawyer Andrea will riff and rule on some of the wildest laws that actually exist in America. For example, in Gainesville, Georgia it’s illegal to eat fried chicken with a knife and fork and in Arkansas, it's illegal to mispronounce Arkansas - are these laws wack or woke? Come laugh and learn while Andrea and 3 comedian guest judges, give their take!

"GOOD COOKS" is a monthly sketch comedy show all about food. Each month, we invite two amazing guests who work in the world of food. We interview them about their passions and their work and help them plan audience tastings and demonstrations. Between interviews, original comedy sketches keep the atmosphere upbeat and energized. We've featured chefs, small business owners, social media influencers, publicists, sommeliers, and more. The show was born out of our shared love of food, comedy, and creating a sense of community for our audience.

“Breaking news specials flash on the back screen of the performance. In general, Oedipus, Antigone, and the news editor-in-chief play their drama against the backdrop of television screens, flashes and spotlights - all these iconic manifestations of today.
An interesting and unexpected reading of the ancient Greek tragedy [that] plunges the spectator...into complete delight!”
- Sona Meloyan, Voice of Armenia
The year is 401 B.C., or 2016 A.D. Or 2020.
Oedipus, exiled from Thebes for crimes against nature, arrives on the outskirts of Athens, blind, guided by his daughter Antigone, with a Delphic plan. Bent on taking the throne (and holding the gods to their promise), Oedipus makes an offer to the people: install him as their leader, rewrite their constitution, and protect him from an investigation emerging from Thebes. In return, Oedipus will channel the gods' power to protect and raise up Athens—above cosmopolitan Thebes, above warring Persia—and above a freakish storm brewing on the horizon.
But Antigone misses glittering Thebes (and her heartthrob brother Polynices), and as Oedipus turns his sights on the city that exiled him, a prophecy extending the family curse threatens to upend his revolution. Reinventing Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus and inverting the Oedipal impulse toward female agency, Oedipus in the District is an opera about rhetoric, family, wealth, and power—how power given can't easily be taken back, and power taken can't easily be kept.

Whiskey Flicks Live! Something Whiskey this Way Comes... is an unscripted, booze-infused deep dive into film in which motormouth film buff Michael Niederman reacts in real time to a series of surprise clips from horror, thriller and sci-fi movies. With the aid of live VJ Daniel McCoy, and a bottle of whiskey, Michael will lead us on an impromptu, interactive journey through a century of cinematic fear, asking us to consider, what scares us, when, and why?

You're invited to a developmental presentation of: Pier Valentino's: Show Without End! (The Final Broadcast).
Is there a tear in your eye, cuz the end is nigh? You’re not alone gentle freaks and humble geeks! From the basement of Pier’s mother’s Foccaceria, ‘Show Without End!’ has broadcast for over a decade between midnight and 4am every Monday (and occasional Thursday), just after Barry Weatherjam’s Bagpipe and Kazoo Jamboree to various Bay Area public access channels, and to homes across the country with mighty rabbit ear antennae. And in the hour (or so) before the asteroid Ishtar collides with our trembling planet and rear ends us into eternal oblivion, Pier would like you to consider yourself welcome to share the end…on the final broadcast of Show Without End!
This is from Pier: “All praise the Olive Duchess, who is all things, and who is me, and who is you. May we strut, as the Duchess does, through what remains of this existence, and into the next existence, once the approaching asteroid rear ends us off the galactic highway and into the deep, cold, oxygen-less vacuum that is the Milky Way. My humble freaks, my gentle geeks. Let me be your steadfast Captain through this last dark night. Consider yourself welcome to share the end with me, on the final Show Without End.”
“wonderfully campy and deeply hilarious...a play of such clear promise... layered in dark humor....Layered in dark humor and cunningly simple in its staging, “Pier Valentino’s: Show Without End (The Final Broadcast)” is a treat for anyone with a fondness for hammy theatrics and charming oddities, The well‑meaning TV host is something of a neurotic mess, albeit kind, soft‑spoken and endlessly endearing.... adorably sympathetic” –All About Solo review (4.5 out of 5 Stars)

Email Pro is a live performance in which Ivan Anderson writes and sends emails to strangers who are chosen by the audience. The emails are 100% improvised and typically consist of the following: parodies of spam, parodies of self-help, absurd distortions of what it’s like to be a person, and frantic attempts to tell the truth and be helpful. Crowd work and audience engagement have a significant impact on the course of each performance. Meanwhile, recurring guest star Jeff Manian sits at the side of the stage, providing musical accompaniment on keyboard and serving as the voice of reason. The entire thing is like a glitched-out combination of talk show, email masterclass, and stand-up comedy meltdown. Get started by visiting https://emailpro.email.

On October 14, a select group of NYC artists will gather in celebration of memory, movement, and community to raise funds and awareness for the Alzheimer's Association at the second annual Arts for Alz benefit performance at The Tank NYC. Featuring work from leading choreographers Karla Puno Garcia (Hamilton, ENCORES at City Center Choreographer of Gone Missing), Billy Griffin (Mary Poppins, Young Frankenstein), Chris Jarosz (Wicked, National Tour) and more, the night takes audience members throughout the moments that connect us to each other, no matter who we are or where we come from. It is an evening to commemorate those we have lost and join together in hope for a brighter future.
Taylor McMahon (Once Thousand Nights and One Day, AcousticaElectronica) and Adam Wedesky (Arrow Rock Lyceum, Think Tank, Norwegian Cruise Line) created ArtsForAlz in memory of their late grandparents. "As an advocate for health, there are always new ways to engage and educate your community. In pairing my love for art and passion for health advocacy, I knew creating something like ArtsForAlz could have great impact in my community. It was the best way I knew how to celebrate my grandmother's life," said Taylor.
Adam's story aligns closely with Taylor's and dates back to his first experiences volunteering with the Alzheimer's Association in 2003. "Creating a platform like ArtsForAlz has been a goal of mine since my grandfather passed away in 2012," said Adam. "I wanted to bring my love of the arts, and passion to fund Alzheimer's research together, to educate and inspire others to fight for the cause. I am looking forward to sharing the evening with everyone!"
With more than 5 million Americans (and growing) living with Alzheimer's Disease, there is an increasing need for appropriate care for patients and their loved ones. ArtsForAlz aims to create a space to support an organization whose mission is to better serve those affected by this disease, in a way that uplifts and inspires. There's no better way to educate and encourage action than with art. #Arts4Alz
Proceeds from the evening will benefit the Alzheimer's Association. To donate to our page visit: https://act.alz.org/site/TR?px=11470040&fr_id=13035&pg=personal

“Three Sisters: Tulsa, 1921,” a devised re-imagining of Anton Chekhov’s seminal play, is set in the affluent Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa County, Oklahoma, one of the wealthiest black communities in the United States at the time. The play follows Uli, Cora, and Irene before, during, and after the Tulsa Race Riot that engulfed their home and lives in the summer of 1921. “Three Sisters: Tulsa, 1921” focuses on the strength and resilience of those most gravely affected by violence they can do nothing to control: black women. We see the sisters struggle to keep their family and community together, even as it turns to ash around them.

Whiskey Flicks Live! Something Whiskey this Way Comes... is an unscripted, booze-infused deep dive into film in which motormouth film buff Michael Niederman reacts in real time to a series of surprise clips from horror, thriller and sci-fi movies. With the aid of live VJ Daniel McCoy, and a bottle of whiskey, Michael will lead us on an impromptu, interactive journey through a century of cinematic fear, asking us to consider, what scares us, when, and why?
