SHELLS: BANKER BY DAY...DIVA BY NIGHT
Thursdays, April 28 & May 26 at 9:30 PM; $20
Michelle "Shells" Hoffman is ready to shed her 9-to-5 facade and prove she has what it takes to become an international pop sensation. Performing elaborate, original numbers ranging in style from Lady Gaga to Radiohead, this Carrie Bradshaw wannabe challenges the audience with her audacious, bold style. When matters of her personal life are brought up, the show takes an unexpected turn. Armed with a glass of Shiraz and a penchant for drunk-dialing, Shells leaves audience members laughing deliriously, saying: "I know her," or worse, "I am her!" www.iamshells.com
YOUNG Jean Lee AND FUTURE WIFE: WE'RE GONNA DIE
April 1-30 & 2 at 7:00 PM. $30 seated / $25 standing
In WE'RE GONNA DIE, provocative theater artist Young Jean Lee explores human vulnerability with her hilariously disorienting signature style. Surrendering her usual practice of casting larger-than-life superstars, Lee sets out to make a show that any ordinary person could perform. Using herself as a guinea pig, non-performer Lee takes the stage herself along with her band, Future Wife, to tell stories and sing songs about our shared human weakness and failure. Join Lee and Future Wife for an evening of heartbreak, despair, aging, sickness, and death. You may be miserable, but you won't be alone.
