This revolutionary DIY parody film and hilarious reimagining of the classic autobiographical coming-of-age story follows an unconfident, closeted trans girl as she moves to Gotham City to make it big as a comedian by joining the cast of UCB Live - a government-sanctioned late night sketch show in a world where comedy has been outlawed. As mainstream success eludes our heroine, leading her to unite with a ragtag team of rejects, misfits, and a certain love interest named Mister J, "Joker the Harlequin" is born again as a confident (and psychotic) joker on a collision course with the city's fascist caped crusader. Vats of feminizing chemicals, sexy cartoon interludes, scarecrow psychiatrists, CGI Lorne Michaels, and psychedelic gender dysphoria all play supporting roles. Helmed by writer/director/editor/star Vera Drew and using her own life experiences as a basis for the film, THE PEOPLE'S JOKER is a deeply personal journey that's as much documentary as it is parody. THE PEOPLE’S JOKER features a superhero-sized cast of celebrated comedic talent in both voice and live action roles behind the vibrant kaleidoscope of characters that lampoon the iconic heroes and villains of the DC comics’ world, featuring cameos from comedy multi-hyphenate Tim Heidecker, award-winning actor Bob Odenkirk, Maria Bamford (Netflix’s Big Mouth, Adult Swim’s Teenage Euthanasia), and Scott Aukerman (Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis co-creator and host of the Comedy Bang! Bang! podcast), with Vera Drew, Lynn Downey (Amazon Prime Video’s Daisy Jones & The Six), Nathan Faustyn (SADDLED), and Kane Distler, in his film debut as Mister J.

It’s a Queerly Double Feature- which means two shows for the price of one! ACHILLES IN DRAG “Achilles in Drag” is a bold, comedic play remixing an ancient myth. To dodge the Trojan War, Achilles fakes his death and reinvents himself as a woman on a lush island—until his forlorn lover, Patroclus, uncovers the truth. Inspired by bestselling book, “The Song of Achilles”, this queer romp bursts with romance, chaos, and a deliciously messy royal love triangle. No Follow Up Questions When it comes to comedian, Marla Alpert, critics agree: “Oh, Marla, that’s wicked...” - Barbara Alpert, no relation. “If Lewis Black had a sex change, and never hung out with Jeffrey Epstein.” and “Thanks for the review, mom.” - M. A. “Who?” -Brant Bentley, Knew York Times Your parents probably taught you that it’s “impolite to discuss politics in mixed company.” That was never true for Marla Alpert. Her parents sat her in front of a TV for every second of Bush v. Gore, and 26 years onward, like a hanging chad, it’s now everyone’s problem. Her father always called her a “wise guy.” He was half-right. Come watch a woman, as Jewish as she is transgender, take on the most insidious and uncomfortable topics in our current political landscape, in unapologetic and surprising ways. The government may be trying to kill her, but what’s new?

Anchored by a wandering pocket watch, "Undrunk Chai" is a surreal drama with dark humor that ruptures across three centuries. Two gender-expansive performers inhabit a kaleidoscope of characters caught between queer desire, ancestral wounds, and the fight to keep joy alive in the shadow of empire. In present-day New York, an estranged pair of friends test their capacity for repair over pie. In colonial India, a Muslim sepoy and a British lieutenant risk secret love on the brink of uprising. In Victorian London, a mother and daughter plot survival through yet another migration. Each era is warmed by a cup of chai asking to be drunk. Content Awareness: Flashing or shifting lights.

On April 23, 1961, Judy Garland took the stage at Carnegie Hall for what would be called “the biggest night in show business history.” Sixty-five years later, NYC-based drag artists Xenia Fauxbia & Soda Pressed resurrect that legendary concert in a bold, experimental drag comedy that asks: what did it cost her? Blending lip synch with theatrical chaos—a drone, rainbow cake, and a literal carrot on a stick—the show pays homage to the queer icon while dissecting the intersections of fatphobia and the entertainment industry. As Garland’s financial livelihood, legacy, and relationship with her queer fans hang in the balance, Xenia Fauxbia & Soda Pressed examine the cultural pressures that shaped her self-destruction. Through virtuosic Judy Garland impressions, they mine their own complex relationships to weight, eating, and not always fitting into The Costume. They proudly use the word FAT—insisting it is not an insult, nor a word to whisper—while confronting how society’s demonization of fatness impacted Garland’s fragile self-image and continues to shape artists today.

Do you like “Mamma Mia”? Do you like transgender people? If your answer to both questions is yes, then Trauma Mia is the show for you! If your answer to only one of those questions is yes, this still might be the show for you; we’re not sure. Trauma Mia" follows a closeted trans girl, Sophie, who travels to Greece for her sister Allison’s wedding to her blind fiancée Katie. Not wanting to steal the spotlight from Allison, Sophie tries to keep her transition a secret. But after the siblings meet their grandmother’s caregiver, Max, who’s also trans and turns out to be Katie’s ex, a zany series of miscommunications and misunderstandings leads to drama (and song and dance numbers). Also in tow is June, Sophie’s kooky transfemme roommate who dispenses questionable advice from afar; Donna, their narcissistic alcoholic mother, who’s hosting the wedding as a tax avoidance strategy; and Tom, their Gen Z younger brother. Trauma Mia is written by writer and comedian Natasha Dumas, whose work has been published in McSweeney’s, Belladonna, and Jane Austen’s Wastebasket. It stars Nat Kissingford, T Anthony, Nyomi Nee, Ellis Durand, Hannah Brown, Emeline Lakrout, and Natasha Dumas.

The Body—our nameless narrator in this one-person play—is a hypochondriac. Or at least that’s what the world tells him when he confesses his symptoms. His hair seems to be suddenly falling, strange cysts appear on his testicles, and he can’t remember basic details like the name of his roommate’s dog or how he got to New York. As he navigates the city—threesomes, protests, nightclubs, cemeteries—time begins to unravel around him. With each trauma, he is hurled through time where personal memories and historical vignettes blend in this surreal politico-somatic world. As he regains his memories in ebbs and flows of amnesia and clarity, memory itself becomes both duty and burden. A weight that seems to break him, and the world around him, wide open.
