With the help of multiple ghosts, an angel, a precocious Victorian child, and a group dance number; Scroogina discovers the true meaning of Winter Car Sales Month.

Will Scroogina discover what it means for everyone to have access to cheap cars? Will anyone ever find health, happiness, and love? Will everyone be forced to buy a Honda Civic? Find out Thursday, January 27th at 7:30PM at the cell (338 W. 23rd St. New York, NY 10011). Featuring performances by Pinwheel P. Pinwheel, Menthol Menthol, Chevy Lace, Sherry Poppins, Savion, and The Moon Baby

Unforgivable Emotional Carnivore is a wild, unrelenting romp. Combining high-nonsense, drag, and theatrical storytelling; each show is a completely unique, absurdist thrill-ride. Imagine being in a bounce house. That bounce house is yelling at you, "Please! It hurts when you jump," but you're just having so much fun! You can't stop! That's Unforgivable, but don't bring your children. They'll just be too confused.

What makes Unforgivable so exemplary is its dadaist nonchalance towards combining unrelated elements. The show has become a thrilling staple of the cell. Bringing together Pinwheel Pinwheel's directorial and sartorial expertise, God Complex's movement-oriented storytelling, Esther's esoteric genius, and Menthol Menthol's unhinged pop-culture tomfoolery; the team of four truly have something to say. Although, no one is quite sure what it is.

Originating in 2018 in the basement of now-closed bar, The Vault, the team has grown the show into a monster of its own amusement. Kicking, crawling, and spitting their way to the off-broadway stage, the sky seems like the actual limit. Mostly because physics prevents Esther's ladder from being stable at that height.
