About this event
SEE THE SHOW THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO SEE!
A 45-minute cabaret-style, Lynchian fever dream of weirdos, comedy and pure entertainment that will take you into the Twilight Zone!

IF YOU LIKE THE WEIRD, THE WONDERFUL, THE "IM NOT QUITE SURE WHAT IS HAPPENING" THEN THIS SHOW IS FOR YOU!

Freakshow is Suzie Miller’s mentee, Beatrice McBride’s absurdist and darkly comedic investigation into what we view as entertainment in contemporary society and how we exploit those involved.

Delving into the lives of a ramshackle band of "freaks," held together by The Ringmaster, an alcoholic dreamer longing for the days of old, Freakshow is a deteriorating sideshow, barely sustaining itself under The Ringmaster's nostalgic yet misguided leadership, its eclectic characters capture the essence of human curiosity and the darker side of our need for amusement.

Balancing absurdity with poignancy, Freakshow is comedic, heartwarming, and disturbing all at once, promising to entertain and surprise you.

Every ticket includes a raffle ticket for the nightly grand prize draw worth $200.
