About Max Baumgarten, D Marcucci, John Norris, Bill O'Neill, Claire Woolner
A collective of performers come together to create a live comedy show with the audience, built and incubated over the course of the run. The show promises to be funny, sexy, and stupid — sacred and profane in equal measure. Featuring Max Baumgarten, D Marcucci, John Norris, Bill O'Neill and Claire Woolner, co-devised by Sam Fishman and directed by John Norris and Corey Podell. Expect audience participation and nudity in this absurdist and acoustic comedy at CabVol 1.
Why see this show?
If you want to be part of something genuinely unpredictable — a show built in real time with the audience — this is a rare chance to witness live creativity in the making. Absurdist, messy, and made fresh each night.
