Before there was Paris, Lindsay or Britney, there was Madame! The world’s most infamous diva is back in all her glory with a new man on her arm, and the same biting wit that has made her a cultural icon. “Today, to become a celebrity you need a million dollar stylist and a pricey publicist. In my day, all you needed was a cheap pair of knees pads!”

With the help of her friend Crazy Mary, her fabulous gowns, and her new co-star Rick Skye, Madame tells her life story illustrated with outrageous photos from her personal album, video of some of her past performances, and songs both original and classic. Part Broadway musical, part autobiography, It’s Madame with an E promises “something new, something borrowed, and something oh-so-very blue. So leave the little ones at home, or I guess you could crack the window and leave them in the car.”

This Christmas, it’ll be Scrooge’s chestnuts roasting over an open fire at the

Camp Comedy Roast of Ebenezer Scrooge


Combining one of comedy’s oldest traditions (Savagely mocking someone) and one of the holidays oldest traditions (Getting too drunk and telling people what they really think), All the classic, beloved characters of the Christmas Carol finally get their chance to give Scrooge what’s coming to him with words that Charles Dickens never even knew.

This raucous and uproarious evening is the perfect anecdote to those that prefer a little more spice to their holidays. This ain’t the Guthrie’s Christmas Carol!

It’s Christmas in Neuterburg, Iowa, and time for local insurance agent Bob Finhead’s annual Christmas Party! Join Bob’s hilariously wacky friends and clients as they seek the holiday spirits at the bottom of a booze bottle!

The town mayor, the sheriff, the twin farmer sisters, the stoner, the town floozy and the pastor’s wife have already RSVPed for this year’s event. But Bob’s dreams are bigger than this small town life. Will he move to the big city? Or will he come to realize how much he is the heart and soul of the town? Will any of this matter once the party stars, the bickering and fighting begins, and the drinks hit the floor?

Starring Charles Fraser, Pat O’Brien, Heidi Fellner, Debra Berger, Meisha Johnson, Kevin McLaughlin, Tim Dybevik, Denise McDonald & David Beukema. Directed by John Haynes. Written by Joe Keyes and Rob Elk with special material by Mark Fite.

Bye Bye Liver, the Twin Cities’ Drinking Play, is a high octane comedy adventure centered around one of the Twin Cities’ favorite past times—drinking. With outrageous sketch comedies mixing drinks, interactive drinking games and male versus female inebriation, Bye Bye Liver is a play premised on the simple joys and complex consequences that indulging in a drink or two or three can bring.

The Bye Bye Liver casting calls on comedy stalwarts who are involved at such local enterprises as the Actor’s Theatre of Minnesota, Brave New Workshop Theatre, Stevie Ray’s Comedy Cabaret, Stages Theatre Company and the Fringe Festival, among others. Cast members include John Carson, Chad Dutton, Jane Froiland, Andy Kraft, Matt Kraft, Kendra Ryan, and Aly Westberg with direction by John Haynes, director of the Creative Institute at Actor’s Theater.

The hour-and-15-minute show premiered in Nashville and was originally created by producer, writer and director Byron Hatfield.

Star Tribune says, “Show has been knocking them back”
City Pages says, “A-list event!”
TC Daily Planet says, “Bye Bye Liver hits the sweet spot”!
