Will Foskey is a 27 year old stand-up comedian based in Atlanta, GA. After being named one of Just For Laughs’ “New Faces of Comedy” he recorded his debut album/special “All Things Sacred” which was released this summer. He can currently be found touring the country in preparation of his next project. While back in Atlanta, he can be found regularly performing at The Laughing Skull Lounge or playing bass for “Square Pizza” a band comprised of fellow comedians. After a good set in Chattanooga, an Angry Karen took to facebook and described his comedy as “Depressing,” “Judgmental,” and “Not Funny!” Will is very proud of this and to this day, has the review as his phone background.

An audience favorite, this holiday show is a romp from start to finish! Eat a Thanksgiving dinner in West Virginia with missionaries and moonshiners, then join the fun as a pound-puppy escapes her pastor-rescuer to become Princess the Christmas Dog on a snowy Christmas eve. You’ll laugh, you’ll sing, you’ll feel warm and fuzzy, and if you’re very, very good you’ll even get a candy cane.

Andy has performed his jokes on Conan and The Late Late Show with James Corden.

Sandford even played an animated version of himself on Adult Swim’s Aqua Teen Hunger Force. The Village Voice called him, “one of New York’s comedic gems;” a nice gesture, but not enough to keep him in New York. Andy is out of Atlanta now (sorry NY).

JACKASS star, stand-up comedian, and New York Times best-selling author, Steve-O, is bringing The Bucket List Tour to Thomas Wolfe Auditorium on December 8, 2022. Every idea on Steve-O’s bucket list was so ill-advised, he never expected to go through with any of them. Until it was time to prepare for this tour. Not only are the stunts more ridiculous than what you already know Steve-O for, he did them all, and made a multimedia comedy show out of them. Not for kids, or the faint of heart. 

FOR ADULT AUDIENCES ONLY – this show contains graphic footage of Sexually Explicit Content, Nudity, Self-Inflicted Violence, & Drug Use

Only for Ages 18 and older

A battle so epic, it could only be shown in the dumbest way possible!

Acclaimed local playwright and director Rodney Smith has offered to take the usual holiday fare and turn it on its head by adapting this campy and (unintentionally) funny film from the 1960s for our stage. I’d explain the plot, but there’s not much to it outside the title.

Whether you’re a fan of the movie or just looking for an alternative to Christmas schmaltz, you’re going to laugh and cheer at the bumbling Kinmar, Voldar, Dropo and the sexy Mrs. Candi Clause. And isn’t that what the holidays are all about?
