Anti-Fascist Pasta Night is a political stand-up hour by comedian Ron Placone that takes audiences through politics, culture, travel, relationships, and the small coping mechanisms that keep us sane. The title was inspired by real anti-fascist pasta nights in Italy, rooted in the fact that Mussolini hated pasta and considered it one of society's ills. Placone, who has been a political comic since 2007, performs the show as part of the Free Fringe with a pay-what-you-can collection at the end. The show runs daily at 15:45 and won the 2026 Inspiring Social Justice Award at the Inspire Performing Arts Festival.
