About Adrian’s show:
A Secret Third Thing is a one human show that combines poetry, comedy, and storytelling to break down binaries of all types. It challenges the binaries of what it means to be man/woman, religious/spiritual, married/divorced, family/friend. It follows the story of one person and their journey from being a cis, heterosexual, devout Christian to a nonbinary, queer, curious artist.
About Karla’s show:
Judged is a one woman show exploring labels, drama and truth! Discover how words, actions and society defined Karla to become more than just fat & funny! You’ll experience her emotional journey that includes songs and Shakespeare. Karla will be joined on stage by local performers to further explore labels through improv.
This show is presented in partnership with CATCh, Queen City Comedy and Dingle Drama.
