Tickets available online now (seating is limited)
OBERON SHOWTIME: 8pm
Tickets: $20 advance / $25 door*
If you missed the extraordinary BWC premiere in January, ask your friends- it was a blast! We're hearing wonderful things from those who came, and as a performer and producer, all I can say is Damn, I loved it!... February's Bent Wit Cabaret theme is SIN - and it's on Valentines Day. Date or no, you should go because the line-up is slammin' and the more we produce, the bigger and badder we get... and who knows who you'll meet when the jello wrestling gets really out of hand (ok, there might not be jello wrestling, but now that I'm thinking of it...?!)
Featuring stunning moments by: Snap2, Good Asian Drivers, Evan O'Television's Cousin Seamus, Bitches of Destiny, Clara LaFrance, Professor Burns, Lainey SchoolTree, Femme Brulee, Maria Kogan, Julia Van Daam, Daemeon Pratt, Alex Carrey-Cooper, and more- keep checking back as the list gets longer...
Hosted by: Mary Dolan and UnAmerika's Sweetheart Karin Webb
House Band to die for: Elephant Tango Ensemble (members of Goli and Humanwine)

Drink of the evening: The "Sinfultini"

Check out the Weekly Dig article - an interview with Co-Creator of Axe To Ice, Karin Webb.
AXE TO ICE PRODUCTIONS: A Brief Brief...
Axe To Ice was created by the two cabaret-producing, gender-bending, clown-like character actors Karin Webb and Jill Gibson. The company seeks to create, support, and produce art that causes an audience to question and to think, to be struck in the moment, and to bring their experiences into action in their own communities.
The name "Axe To Ice" distills a favorite quote from Kafka:
The name "Axe To Ice" distills a favorite quote from Kafka:
"Altogether, I think we ought to read only books that bite and sting us. If the book does not shake us awake like a blow to the skull, why bother reading it in the first place? So that it can make us happy, as you put it? Good God, we'd be just as happy if we had no books at all; books that make us happy we could, in a pinch, also write ourselves. What we need are books that hit us like a most painful misfortune, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, that make us feel as though we had been banished to the woods, far from any human presence, like a suicide. A book must be the ax for the frozen sea within us. That is what I believe.”
–By Franz Kafka To Oskar Pollak, January 27, 1904
