Ars Nova (Jason Eagan, Artistic Director; Jeremy Blocker, Managing Director) announces a jam-packed January lineup featuring exciting new comedy, music and theater programming.

Coming up in January: 

 

Futurity: A Musical by the Lisps in Concert (Tuesday, January 10 @ 8pm; $10 advanced, $15 door)

Clown Baggage (Wednesday, January 11 @ 8pm; $15)
Matt Wilson wanted to be a doctor. He also wanted to be a clown. He went with the latter, but now he’s got baggage. Clown Baggage. Worlds collide in this spectacular implosion of clown, medicine and sideshow theatrics.
