Mark Hardy returns as Applegate when America’s favorite past times combine! See this classic as you’ve never seen it before and start the 50th season off with a home run.

This devilishly clever classic celebrates America’s favorite past time! Follow Joe Hardy, a middle aged baseball fanatic as he sells his soul to the devil to help The Washington Senators win the World Series.

This delightfully fast paced comedy is sure to knock it out of the park with the hit songs “Heart”, “Whatever Lola Wants”, and “Shoeless Joe from Hannibal, MO” to name just a few. Packed with comedy, dancing, and romance Damn Yankees is sure to start the summer off right!

‘Erma Bombeck: At Wit’s End’ Staged Reading w/ Nancy Rothman at PS21

This one-woman play by Alison and Margaret Engel is a tribute to the columnist and humorist, Erma Bombeck.

Erma Bombeck Smiles

This one-woman play by Alison and Margaret Engel is a tribute to the columnist and humorist, Erma Bombeck. Bombeck lovingly satirized the plight of the suburban housewife from the 1960s to the 1980s in her widely-syndicated column and best-selling books, and used her fame to support the women’s Equal Rights Amendment. Comic actor, Nancy Rothman, brings Bombeck’s humor home for modern audiences in a celebration of Mother’s Day.

Bindlestiff Cirkus Winter Cabaret at Club Helsinki Hudson, Jan 20, 2018

Helsinki Hudson presents Bindlestiff Cirkus Winter Cabaret this Saturday.

Hudson’s own Bindlestiff Family Cirkus continues its wintertime tradition of hosting a monthly cabaret, featuring a variety of circus, theater, comedy and musical entertainers. Each month this winter, Bindlestiff Cirkus will bring a new lineup, with acts including trapeze, contortion, acrobatic balance, sword swallowing, juggling, physical comedy, and oddball novelty turns. The Bindlestiff stage is one of the few arenas in the world where attendees may see internationally renowned street performers, featured acts from Cirque du Soleil and Ringling Brothers, and artists from “America’s Got Talent” next to local legends, live, on stage, and in the same show.

Live music is a defining feature of Bindlestiff’s cabaret shows, with witty, original tunes by a variety of NYC’s best composers and accompanists. Bindlestiff’s unique style reflects deep roots in NYC’s underground club scene, nods to political street theater, and a steady respect for the traditions of American popular entertainment and illegitimate theater.
