Silent Stand Up Comedy Show Hosted by Cody Hughes
Mar 25 @ 6:00 pm
Rabbit Rabbit
The comedy show is a ticketed event on Rabbit Rabbit’s outdoor rooftop, with very limited table seating. Come early and get sunset dinner and drinks!
Your comedy ticket includes your own sanitized headphones. You will not miss a minute of the show while looking stylishly futuristic!
Rabbit Rabbit Silent Comedy tickets include 1 pair of RF wireless personal headphones so that you can listen to the comic’s audio without violating time limits on amplified sound. The headphones are sanitized thoroughly with an EPA-approved cleaning agent between our weekly events, and stored in a no-touch, safe and sealed manner to allow further decontamination so that they are completely safe, between our once per week silent comedy nights.
The Magnetic Theatre presents Playing With Our Food
Mar 25 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
The Magnetic Theatre - ONLINE

So, how have you been staying sane during the past year of lockdown?
That’s the question The Magnetic Theatre asked one “quaranteam” of actors, and while it remains to be seen how much sanity they’ve maintained, the answer is, “Playing With Our Food!” Get ready for a weird, wild, hilarious feast of gustatory one-act plays selected, directed, and performed by Tabitha Judy, Strother Stingley, and Tippin.

Each taking turns at the directing trough, this “food group” of artists serves up a heaping helping of dark comedy, absurdity, and silliness in the course of four quirky short plays by playwrights from around the country. “Three Women and an Onion,” written by Ryan Bultrowicz, finds a Kafkaesque purgatory in an errant allium. Evan Baughfman’s “The Last Beans in the Box” explores the secret lives of young wizards’ least favorite sweets. Jackie Martin’s “Cookies for Bethany” warns of the dangers of taking things that aren’t yours. And “37 Scenes, and a Watermelon,” by Ian Downes, asks the question, “Do they always cry so much?”

So, order some dinner, get comfy with your TV tray, and tuck in to this smorgasbord of tasty theatrical tidbits, delivered via live-stream direct to your living room!

Compagnia Baccalà presents Pss Pss Rescheduled
Apr 1 @ 7:00 pm
Diana Wortham Theatre

Compagnia Baccalà presents Pss Pss, April 1, 2021 at 7pm

Ticket holders for the original April 24, 2020 performance: See below for your options.

Winners of 15 international prizes, including the Cirque Du Soleil Trophy at Paris’ prestigious Festival Mondial De Cirque Du Demain, Compagnia Baccalá’s Pss Pss brings enthralling acrobatic feats together with inventive, delightful and often ridiculous visual storytelling that keeps you laughing long after leaving the theatre. Inspired by Chaplin, Keaton and the stars of silent films, modern-day clowns Camilla Pessi and Simone Fassari ran away from one circus to start a circus of their own — and, in doing so, they created a world that is timeless and tender, hilarious and ingenious and beloved around the world.

Funding support provided in part by:

Swiss Arts Council - Prohelvetia

If you had already purchased tickets for the original April 24, 2020 performance:
1. Do nothing. Your tickets will be automatically transfered to the new date.
2. Can’t make the rescheduled date? No problem. Convert your tickets into a credit to be used for another performance in the future (good until June 30, 2022).
3. Transform your tickets into a donation to the Wortham Center.
4. Request a refund.
