Mortified's Doomed Valentines Show
We have compiled some of the best, worst, most awkward, and odd love related pieces that Mortified has to offer! Share the pain, the awkwardness, the necking, the dry humping, the wretched love poems. Plus contests and giveaways! AND THE DEBUT OF OUR NEW IMPROVISATIONAL RAPPING/SINGING HOUSE BAND (feat some former members of THE FREEZE & FREESTYLE LOVE SUPREME)This one is not to be missed!
WHAT IS MORTIFIED?
Hailed as a "cultural phenomenon" by Newsweek and celebrated for years by the likes of This American Life, The Today Show, The Onion AV Club, & Entertainment Weekly, Mortified is a comic excavation of teen angst artifacts (journals, poems, letters, lyrics, home movies, schoolwork) as shared by their original authors -- in front of total strangers!
Where else can you hear grown men and women confront their past with firsthand tales of their first kiss, first puff, worst prom, fights with mom, life at bible camp, worst hand job, best mall job, and reasons they deserved to marry Bon Jovi? Submissions come from a wide range of participants, from professional performers to total amateurs . All in the noble pursuit of self-degradation. Share the shame.
Tickets:
Advance: $32
Day of Show: $40
Student (with valid ID at door only): $30
Ashkenaz is all ages, all the time. Kids and minors are always welcome. Those 12 or under are admitted FREE (unless otherwise noted).
