Johnny Depp: a retrospective on late stage capitalism
Join “Johnny Depp”, preteen heart-throb turned wino forever, for a retrospective on every film in his entire career, even the ones we didn’t watch, in order to ask… what happened? A satirical powerpoint "extravaganza” that is part ritual and part drunken singalong. Johnny Depp! features throwing things at random intervals, “fabulous” prizes, and a celebrity circus we keep tuning in to.

Catholic Guilt
Does daddy Jesus's naked body on the cross make you wet? So will this show (no, seriously - there's water). So put on your waterproof panties and get ready to unpack losing our virginity in the most holy way, abortion, a bowling experience that leads to eternal damnation, and the list goes on...Through audience participation, cringey personal recounts, and stand-up adjacent clowny performance, Kelly's poignant, subversive, hilarious show exposes the impossible standards of the Catholic church. This show is for anyone who wants to release shame and guilt surrounding religion. We will laugh, we will sin, will we make it to hell together?

Good Person
Are you a good little boy? A sweet baby girl?
Patricia! Is rich, she’s white, and she's a Good Person. In the world of social justice, social media, callout culture and snowflakes, everyones looking and everyones good. But who is really good and who gets to decide? In this sharp and biting satire, Patricia! Will hold your nose, open your throat and give you the dose of goodness you deserve.
