Solo Showdown: Writing, Comedy & Storytelling Workshops

We had two great shows this weekend at The Marsh with "Are You Dressed for The Apocalypse?"

One audience member said my show reminded him of (Emmy Winner) Alex Edelman, which I take as a high compliment.

Lots of other folks loved it too. (The word "brilliant" was bandied about. I'm not gonna argue with them.)

I'm having so much fun riffing and playing with you all - I don't want to stop, but... there are

🔥 Just TWO SHOWS LEFT in Berkeley this weekend. Come! 🔥

You didn't get enough? You wanted more? I thought so!

I'm coming BACK to the Bay THIS WEEKEND! To give you more!

But there's only so much left of me... which is to say, ONLY 4 SHOWS LEFT at The Marsh.

See Are You Dressed for the Apocalypse? (Are you?)

THIS SAT and SUN at 4 pm at The Marsh in Berkeley!

Heya! Here's an interview I did telling folks about the upcoming run of Are You Dressed for the Apocalypse? in Berkeley!

Come catch me at The Marsh Berkeley THIS Saturday and Sunday at 4 pm!!

Link to the interview below.

Last Sunday's show was so packed, we almost had to turn folks away...

I didn't expect the whole lot of ladies from Temple Isaiah to come, and I OVERSOLD the house by like 20 tickets. It was a pretty big freakout for a couple hours. But then as usual, just the right amount of people showed up at the door at the numbers worked out PERFECTLY.

And then, Steven opened for me with two BEAUTIFUL original songs he (and we) wrote. A nice little earnest contrast to my funny ha ha stuff. He MELTED all the hearts in the room and put everyone in a great space to laugh about the apocalypse.

It went so well, we decided to do it again!

SATURDAY at 8 pm! Join us for "Are You Dressed for the Apocalypse?" in Culver City!

We're coming down to the last 7 shows, so if you've been waiting... jump on in!

18 hours before my first show, my sound and light tech informed me she would not be available to do the run.

I don’t know a whole lot of theater tech folks here. Much less one available on short notice. Who will be affordable.

I called Steven, frustrated, freaked out, clueless about what to do. He always had great ideas for where to look and what to do. Especially being a native Angeleno.

I asked if he’d help me that night while I look for another tech to take her place. He said yes without hesitation. What I didn’t expect was what he said next.

“I’ll do the whole run for you.”

“Wait, you’re going to show up to all of my 15 shows and do the tech??”

“Yes.”

“Oh my God!! I can’t believe it! Thank you!!!”

This guy is my hero. he rearranged his schedule, he learned the complicated light and sound system in 45 minutes, we rehearsed it a bunch before the show, and he has been improving it every night since we opened in June.

He becomes half an hour before the show, we test the mic, we rehearse with the opener, he knows the sound of lights and supports me physically and emotionally before I get on stage, which is an absolute dream, and once I start the show, he takes a bunch of pictures of me so I can post them.

And if you think I would expect him to watch the 75 minute show 15 more times, you would be silly. I release him, and then he zoom home 10 minutes away. (Good thing I found a theater close to his house.) And then I come hug him after the show. Knowing he’s there for me after gives me such a sense of comfort and grace.

A couple days ago, I came to him again.

“I don’t have an opener for this Sunday… could you open for me? Play some music?”

Well, he said yes!

So this Sunday is a special show… Steven is playing two original songs (which are amazing and beautiful, one of which I co-wrote the lyrics to).

(I’ve also had the vision of co-creating an ending with him that involves compost. More on that possibly in the future…)

Join us for this special show Sunday at 6 pm in Culver City for “Are You Dressed for the Apocalypse?”!

What a review!!

If you haven’t seen it yet, and you’re anywhere near LA, maybe it’s time to check out my comedy show…

Every night is getting better and better.

Are You Dressed for the Apocalypse? has been described as a “70 minute tour de force” “life-changing comedy show” and “hilarious TED Talk”.

I just think of it as a highly curated set of words that serve as an excuse to be with you for one delicious evening.

We have just 9 shows left. Join us Friday night! (Tomorrow!)

Such a sweet show tonight!!

Saturday's show was SOLD OUT!! So, yes, I am living the dream. (It's a small theater, but that's a big deal in LA.)

My next show is TOMORROW NIGHT in Culver City. Live in the area? Come!! Tix below.

So excited to have James Kapicka open for me again!

According to the LA audience, it's either a very profound standup comedy show or a hilarious TED Talk. I'll take it. Are YOU dressed for the Apocalypse? Come find out.

Los Angeles!

My next comedy show is tomorrow night!💥💥💥

Come laugh and be transformed. Details below.

Two fantastic shows in the Bay Area the past two nights!!

I did a gig for a friend’s birthday party and it was SO FUN. So memorable and magical. And I got so well paid! Perfect audience! More please 🥰

And then I figured, let’s do a totally different show the next night and just have it be a gathering of friends and invite people to come for free. Took so little energy to organize and people we so nourished by the comedy!

I can’t wait for tomorrow night’s show in LA!! (June 18th)

Let’s keep this train rolling… send your LA friends out to see me, ok? Link below.
