Two shows for the price of one! Join Alex Berr and Sibet Partee for previews of their solo shows.

Alex Berr: How to Kill a Mouse

The debut comedy show from a scientist reconciling her personal life with her professional one. Alex Berr spent her adolescence studying a rare form of brain cancer; years later her mom was diagnosed with the same form of rare cancer. Reflecting on a life dedicated to science, Alex uses humor to process her mom’s death, while hoping for moral absolution for all the mouse casualties along the way. A deeply personal, funny, and at times absurd look at grief and the human side of science.

Sibet Partee: Behind

Stand-up meets striptease in Behind, a fever dream of dick, desire and delusion. Sibet Partee blends stand-up, burlesque and raw theatricality in this darkly funny one-woman show. Obsessed with King Henry VIII – the original fuckboy – Sibet conjures his ghost and the voices of the (unfortunately) living men who've wrecked her. These exes, rebounds, sugar daddies and friends expose a woman who won't harm herself – but keeps choosing men who will. Behind is one comic's kinky, cracked-out quest for validation from all the wrong dicks. Will Sibet lose her head or suck one instead?
