March 25th at 8pm it’s Harmontown!

What is Harmontown? It’s awesome. It’s unique. It’s one of a kind. It’s something only Dan Harmon (creator of Community and the upcoming Rick and Morty) and Jeff B. Davis (Whose Line is it Anyway) can do. It’s a different show every time and it’s every week. Lucky us! Playing Dungeons and Dragons? It’s happened. Dan Harmon freestyle rapping? Yup, that too. Calling Chevy Chase from stage? Happened…more than once. A celebrity guest? Allison Brie, Donald Glover, and Gillian Jacobs among others have all stopped in. Getting super personal with an intimate audience? Always. It’s Harmontown. It’s awesome. It’s unique. Don’t miss a single week.

March 28th at 7:30 it’s #Chemocation LIVE!

What do an unexpected houseguest, a singing tumor, and an awkward trip to the sperm bank all have in common? They are all part of comedian and writer H. Alan Scott’s show #Chemocation LIVE! It’s a story of his battle with testicular cancer – until now only seen at Huffington Post and on Twitter – brought to life. Wait just a second, though. He’s fine! But he’s oh so very real now that he’s back from his #Chemocation… and he’s got the singing tumor to prove it. On this one-night-only engagement, H. Alan Scott will be joined by writing partner and cancer caretaker Bryan Wilson as they confront, cajole, combat, cuss out, and learn to live being a little cancery.

Follow H. Alan Scott’s #Chemocation. at @HAlanScott on Twitter/Instagram.

Tickets: $8 online, $10 at the door.

March 28th at 9pm it’s RISK!
