Sideshow Goshko Gets Frigid!

Hey Friends!

I'm very excited to announce that in addition to our regularly scheduled Sideshow Goshko at KGB Bar, we have an extra special performance taking place as part of HorseTrade Theater Group's miniFRIDGE Festival! The miniFRIDGE is the carefully curated summer companion to the annual FRIGID New York Festival. This year Horse Trade Theater Group invited ten of their favorite fringe artists/acts, and we're honored to be among the select few.

So, join us on Saturday, June 29th, 7pm at Under St. Marks Theater for a night of true stories from Erin Barker, Ed Gavagan, David Crabb, and yours truly. Music by Dr. Leona Godin.

Tickets available HERE!

May Sideshow Recap!

Hey Gang!

So, there's good news and there's bad news. The good news is, KGB Bar remodeled and updated their bathrooms! And for all the ladies who have had to use that first stall with the half-missing door, you know what an awesome big deal this is.

The bad news is, the once quiet older bathrooms have been updated with the world's LOUDEST hand dryers and crypt-keeper-type squeaking doors. As you can imagine, for a place that runs literary events, this can be quite distracting. BUT, lest I sound ungrateful, I will say that I still heart KGB and you all proved to be the best and most loyal audience out there. So, thank you! Our May show was another full house with tales from Kambri Crews, Joey Novick, Joanne Solomon, and Thomas Pryor. 

We'll be back at it on Thursday, June 27th, 7pm with true, bizarre tales from David Crabb, Emily Epstein White, and Jake Hart. Always free, always at a Soviet Bar.
