SUMMARY:Charming Disaster's Musical Oracle
DESCRIPTION:Charming Disaster’s Musical Oracle is an interactive concert where songs are selected by chance when audience members draw cards from the Charming Disaster Oracle Deck. This Tarot-style card divination not only determines the set list\, but also provides insight into the mysterious workings of destiny (and makes each performance completely unique). NYC goth-folk duo Charming Disaster’s original music is inspired by myth\, magic\, monsters\, and mortality. What does the future hold? Find out before it’s too late… \nCharming Disaster is a goth-folk musical duo based in Brooklyn\, NY\, formed in 2012 by Ellia Bisker and Jeff Morris. Inspired by the macabre humor of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton\, the murder ballads of the Americana tradition\, and the dramatic flair of the cabaret\, they write playfully dark songs about death\, crime\, myth\, magic\, science\, and the occult. Charming Disaster’s music has been featured on the podcast Welcome to Night Vale\, they have toured the United States\, Europe and the UK\, and they have opened for Rasputina\, Voltaire\, and The Dresden Dolls. Recent appearances include the Rochester Fringe Festival\, the Edinburgh Horror Festival\, and Dragon Con. Their seventh album\, The Double\, was released in May 2025 to critical acclaim. \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:Jon Bennett: This Will Only Ever Happen Once
DESCRIPTION:A hilarious and moving show by world-renowned Aussie comedian Jon Bennett (Fire in the Meth Lab\, Pretending Things are a C*ck\, AMERICAN’T) about life’s unrepeatable moments. \nA therapist once told me that my relentless drive to perform comes from the same place as my obsession with wildlife: “Because both are rare\, unpredictable\, and fleeting.” That insight inspired this show. \nTHIS is a live storytelling experience that explores the powerful connection between the magic of live performance and the thrill of encountering wild animals. It’s about presence\, risk\, and wonder\, and the feeling that what you’re witnessing will never happen quite the same way again. \nUsing multimedia\, comedy\, and true stories from 17 years of touring through 58 countries\, I share unforgettable moments from the weirdest gigs to the most surprising animal encounters. The show draws compelling parallels between nature and theatre\, two things that ask us to pay attention\, be present\, and embrace the unpredictable. \nAudiences can expect a funny\, heartfelt\, visually rich show that leaves them with a renewed love of live performance\, a deeper respect for wildlife\, and a better understanding of why we must protect what cannot be repeated\, on stage or in the wild. \nAwards: \n7 X Just for Laughs Award nominee (Montreal Fringe\, 2011-2017) \n12 X Selection – The Moth Main Stage (NYC\, London\, Boston\, LA\, Austin) \n2 X Best Comedy Award nominee (Sydney Fringe\, 2023) \nBest Storytelling Award Winner (Sydney Fringe\, 2023) \nNational Artist of the Year Winner (St. Louis Fringe\, 2022) \nInspiration Award Winner (Minnesota Fringe\, 2022) \n2 X NY Times Best Seller (The Moth Occasional Magic\, 2019; How to Tell a Story\, 2022) \nSelected Off Broadway – Soho Theatre (New York\, 2019) \n2 X The Moth Story Slam Winner (New York\, 2014; LA\, 2019) \nBest Storyteller Award Winner (Victoria Fringe\, 2019) \nOutstanding Storytelling Award Winner (London Fringe\, 2018) \n5 X Best Comedy Award nominee (Perth Fringe\, 2012-2015\, 2018) \nBest Performer & Best Script Award Winner (Nelson Fringe\, 2018) \nBest Comedy Award Winner (Victoria Fringe\, 2017; San Diego Fringe\, 2018) \n2 X Best International Comedian nominee (New Zealand Comedy Awards\, 2017-2018) \nSelected Cruise Ship Guest Entertainer (Princess Cruises\, Norwegian Cruise Lines\, 2018\, 2019\, 2023) \nProducers Pick Award Winner (London Fringe\, 2017) \nBest Performance Winner (Victoria Fringe\, 2016) \nGolden Gibbo Award nominee (Melbourne International Comedy Festival\, 2015) \nFunniest Show Award Winner (London Fringe\, 2015) \nPick of the Fringe Award Winner (Calgary Fringe\, 2015; Boulder Fringe\, 2015) \nCritics Choice Award Winner (Orlando Fringe\, 2015) \nCritics Pick of the Fringe Award Winner (San Diego Fringe\, 2014) \n2 X Selection – Just for Laughs Zoofest (Montreal\, 2013-2014) \nPick of the Fringe Award Winner (Winnipeg Fringe\, 2011) \nCritical Acclaim: \n“Armed only with self-deprecating wit and memories\, Bennett reminds us that ordinary people lead extraordinary lives. ★★★★★” – The Sunday Mail (AUS) \n“Bennett has an uncanny and unnerving ability to make you crease up with laughter before dropping a perfectly timed bombshell.” ★★★★ – Time Out (UK) \n“Bennett is the patron saint of storytelling. ★★★★★” – Broadway Baby (UK) \n“Bennett is a joy to watch.

SUMMARY:Bloody Fairytales: Paul Strickland
DESCRIPTION:Bloody Fairytales is a performance of gorgeous\, gruesome old stories told new… dark fairytales re-upholstered for adult ears and late-night imaginations.\nTold live by International Storytelling Center Teller-in-Residence and National Storytelling Festival Featured Teller Paul Strickland\, these are the stories that are strange\, darkly funny\, unsettling\, and occasionally feral. Chock full of bad decisions\, sharp turns\, and endings that will stay with you long after you leave the venue.\nStrickland has been called a “Master Storyteller” by the Cincinnati Enquirer and described as “Mark Twain on acid” by Artistry Magazine. A more-than-20-time Best-of-Fest winner\, he’s performed at major festivals and venues across the U.S.\, blending folklore\, dark humor\, and razor-sharp timing into performances that feel intimate\, dangerous\, and wildly entertaining.\nBloody Fairytales leans into the shadows of classic tales… the blood\, the longing\, the bargains that go wrong… but lets them breathe again in front of a grown-up audience\, and find new life a time when Unhinged and Unapologetic surrealistic stories ring\, possibly\, truer than ever. \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:DYSFUNCTION: A New Musical - In Concert!
DESCRIPTION:DYSFUNCTION is a healing journey put on stage. The show is about love\, pain\, trauma\, and how – with community – we can move forward from things that happen to us.

It is a collection of stories told through various mediums by a company of multicultural and intergenerational vocalists and instrumentalists. \nThis is not one genre.

SUMMARY:Shanties and Stories with Strangely
DESCRIPTION:Contains: Sing-Alongs. (Allergens: Shenanigans\, Sophistication\, Striptease\, Solipsism\, Somnambulism\, Suffering\, Sublimation\, Suspicion\, Stum’blin\, Sacrilege\, Synergy\, Squeezebox\, and Slight Sagacity.)\n.\nFuzzy Fan Favorite Strangely returns with new songs and tales from several years spent mucking about in boats. Strangely comes from a youth as a sea-dwelling beardo with an undeniable skill for crowd work\, and a penchant for balancing things on the face. Now an international professor of niche nerd-doms who plays accordion in ever more impressive ways\, Strangely is renowned for leading performances that walk the line between sing-along and barely contained riot. Hailed as a “charismatic and slightly deranged\,” [outinperth] “tour de force.” [fringereview]\, Strangely’s performances are always a “meeting with the unusual.” [KingsRiverLife]\n.\nwww.StrangelyAndFriends.com \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:My Dead Uncle’s Porn Collection
DESCRIPTION:I have to clean out my “funny uncle’s” house. He’s dead. The whole family knows about him because\, somehow\, he was allowed to be around. We had to warn each new generation about him.

It is an official selection of the Soaring Solos Stars Series and Whitefire Solofest in Los Angeles following it’s premier at Tampa International Fringe Festival 2025. \nBrady’s first solo show\, “Father\, Daughter\, and Holy Toast” played at Rogue Festival 2022\, Orlando International Theater Festival\, Cincinnati Fringe and Great Salt Lake Fringe\, earning laudatory reviews. \nBrady “commands the stage with a sense of ease that immediately draws in audience members.” (Front Row Reviewers) \n“Impressive… this is a woman worth leaning in and listening to.” (Orlando Weekly) \nNight owl special! February 27\, 10 PM show is free! \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:Rushed Hour Comedy
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for a night of non-stop laughter with co-headiners Jesse Feng (Amazon Prime) and Deric Brown (UCBxSNL Scholarship Recipient)! Come join us for a….Rushed Hour of comedy with two of the best up-and-coming acts from the Los Angeles region. Look at the poster\, look at us\, you get the reference. \nArtist Bios’: \nHailing originally from Rancho Cucamonga\, CA\, Jesse is an Asian American actor/comedian who is trying to be funnier than the name of his hometown. From featuring weekends at the Brea Improv\, DC Comedy Loft\, and Levity Live Oxnard to entertaining bachelorette parties\, he has performed at various (comedy) clubs all throughout the US. He has appeared in comedy festivals such as the Salem\, Portland Maine\, and Flagship Comedy Festivals\, and opened for headliners such as Josh Johnson\, Joe Wong\, Matthew Broussard\, Ryan Goodcase\, Dave Gborie and more. He is a regular feature act on the road for Learnmore Jonasi\, a golden buzzer finalist on America’s Got Talent. As an abnormally tall asian\, Jesse was recently sighted in the horror-comedy movie “Wolf Hollow”\, streaming now on Amazon Prime. A project manager by day and comedian by night\, Jesse lives a double life like a middle-class Batman who dishes punchlines instead of punches. \nDeric Brown is a comedian and writer who loves turning life’s weirdest little moments into big laughs. Originally from Washington\, DC\, and now based in Los Angeles\, he’s part of the Upright Citizens Brigade community as a current Maude team writer and a proud 2024 UCB x SNL Scholarship winner. You might’ve seen him on stage at the Arcade Theater\, Pittsburgh Improv\, Steel City Improv Theater\, or at festivals like Burning Bridge and Steel City. He’s also shared the stage with comedy favorites Ron Funches and Christopher Gethard. When he’s not performing\, he’s probably writing something strange or trying to convince his friends that Shark Tank is secretly a comedy show. \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:A Hot Flash Gospel
DESCRIPTION:A Hot Flash Gospel is a bold\, intimate one-woman spoken word experience that feels like revival\, confession\, and revolution all at once.\nThrough poetry\, storytelling\, and sharp wit\, LadyK navigates menopause\, faith\, grief\, desire\, Black womanhood\, and spiritual reclamation…challenging who gets to preach\, who gets believed\, and whose bodies are deemed sacred. This is not a sermon polished for comfort\, but a testimony delivered in truth.\nMoving fluidly between laughter and lament\, Hot Flash Gospel confronts religious gatekeeping\, gendered expectations\, and the silencing of women\, especially Black women…while honoring the power of lived experience as holy text. It is part altar call\, part cultural critique\, part survival song.\nThis show speaks to anyone who has ever questioned tradition\, outgrown old beliefs\, or discovered that transformation doesn’t arrive quietly…it arrives sweating\, burning\, and unapologetically alive.\nA Hot Flash Gospel is for the seekers\, the survivors\, and the women who refused to cool down to make others comfortable. \nBuy Tickets

She’ll take you on a scroll through TowerLibrary.org so you can see what has happened\, and what needs to happen to make this a reality. There will also be an opportunity to grab a form to get a Fresno County Public Library card if you don’t already have one\, as well as an opportunity for those who qualify to be a part of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. Brooke also hand makes items that will be available for purchase with the proceeds going to a Tower District Library fund. \nBuy Tickets

SUMMARY:S'will
DESCRIPTION:The Fools are back with their lovingly mangled take on ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’\, this time rooted in the present-day Central Valley for a take that’s more queer-powered\, pro-immigrant\, anti-fascist\, and irreverent than ever. If you’ve never been\, the S’Will series is what happens when you smash together Shakespeare\, booze\, improv\, pop culture\, and an audience that’s very much a willing participant in all the chaos. \nBuy Tickets
