ONE-NIGHT-ONLY!

Set at the live taping of a TV talk show, Don't Read the Comments delves into the "grey areas” of sexual encounters and consent. Through the dark, filterless art of clown and bouffon and the power of true storytelling, the show invites you to look into its warped mirror and confront what you see staring back.

Created and directed by Sarah Segal-Lazar, in collaboration with the cast
Featuring: Cara Krisman, Gabe Maharjan, Joy Ross-Jones, Sarah Segal-Lazar, and Dakota Jamal Wellman
Assistant direction (original production) by Mahalia Golnosh Tahririha

Warning: This show graphically deals with the subject of sexual assault.

A hotel you can stay in…forever. Staff are eager to help, and metaphysical boundaries are mostly respected. That is, until a has-been celebrity comes to stay.

INSIDE MADPOETIX STUDIO is revolutionizing our Soirées Intimes Series by allowing the audience to get to know the feature performer through an interview during the show live. The artist will be interviewed by our host Kym Dominique Ferguson @Mrkdferguson. This is a one of a kind experience. There will be 8 Open Mic spots available for all genres: spoken word, poetry, comedy, singers, clowns, dancers, you name it we welcome it. They are each given a 5 min timeslot.
