The Jon Twitcherman Sketch Program with Reformed Whores and The Perch at The Queen City Comedy Experience!
"For years The Perch kept Charlotte entertained with the best sketch comedy on the east coast. The Queen City comedy institution is coming back for one night! And they are bringing with them two world class comedy acts.
The Perch
Established in 1994, The Perch was a staple of the Charlotte comedy scene, until they disbanded in 2003. Alumni have gone on to become comedians, producers, and comedy writers for television shows such as Conan O’Brien, Portlandia, Arrested Development, Drunk History, & MTV. With the exception of a few small reunion shows, The Perch hasn’t been seen or heard from in almost 15 years. Until now. The 4th greatest comedy group of all time is returning home!”
The Reformed Whores
If Dolly Parton & Flight of the Conchords got drunk and had a baby, you'd get the irreverent musical comedy duo Reformed Whores! These ladies have headlined comedy clubs and toured the country opening for musicians like "Weird Al" Yankovic and Les Claypool and have been featured on IFC, PBS, CBS and SiriusXM to name a few. www.reformedwhores.com
The Jon Twitcherman Sketch Program
The Jon Twitcherman Sketch Program is the world's only live-streaming sketch comedy show on Twitch. Every month we perform live comedy that varies from the absurd to political to the even more absurd. Featuring members from the New York City-based sketch comedy group Murderfist, we have been performing comedy for over a decade now, and can't wait to make our Charlotte debut!
The funniest acts from around the corner and across the country are coming together for one hilarious weekend. The Queen City Comedy Experience is more than just a festival -- it's three days chock-full of audience participation, sidesplitting stand-up, wacky improv and much, much more. If you're expecting the jokes your dad cracks on every family trip, buckle up. This is going to be one wild ride."

"It's the story Hollywood has glamorized, publicized, and bombarded us with--how it all began for the two young men, now famous for the tabloid coverage of ther on-again-off-again romances, their big budget smashes and flops, and their "Project Greenlight." It started with a script for the film that became Good Will Hunting, slaved over by the bright young dreamers (originally portrayed by the play's permier by the female playwrights) in their run-down apartment in Somerville, Massachusetts, in 1996. Or was it? This hilarious, scathing play takes us back to the pivotal moment when the finished script that would change their lives...fell from the ceiling while they were working on something else. The laughs come at a manic pace, in this delightfully venomous play that has took off-Broadway by storm." Overlook Press
Featuring Penny Middleton as "Matt Damon" and Alexis Robbins as "Ben Affleck." Directed by John Anderson. Performances are at The PIT (123 E 24th Street). April 24th @ 9:30pm, April 26th @ 9:30pm & April 30th @ 11pm. Tickets are $5.

Super excited to announce I will be working with the inspiring Everyday Inferno Theatre Company having been cast as Daisy in Punk as Fuck, as part of their Punks and Provocateurs Series!
In PUNK AS FUCK, a world-premiere play by Michael K. White and Dianna Stark, youth, passion, and ideals collide on a fateful Friday night in 1991. It's the era of grunge, alt-rock, and 90s punk, and a garage band has gathered for a rehearsal that will end up taking them on an emotional roller coaster ride through their deepest secrets and hidden longings. Set against a background of live music, this is a play for anyone who has ever been young, angry, and in love (and, let’s be honest, that means it’s for everyone).

Pageant Tales and Beauty Fails
By Michael Bradley Block
I will be working with the Rhapsody Collective in this mockumentary inspired, offensively hilarious comedy, which follows the outrageous America’s Goddess Pageant and the zany characters inhabiting this year’s contest. This play will be presented as part of Theater for the New City's Dream Up Festival.
I have been cast as Marjorie, the America’s Goddess coordinator from Chicago and beauty pageant connoisseur. She is sweet, optimistic, and a perfectionist with a (sometimes scary) permanent smile plastered across her face.
Theatre for the New City's Johnson Theatre
Performances are: 8/24 @ 5pm, 8/30 @ 5pm, 8/31 @ 2pm, 9/2 @ 6:30pm, and 9/5 @ 9pm
