Sketch

9:30 PM

Small Theater

A 55-minute folk horror-sketch comedy show about a cursed Puritan village spiraling into chaos — told one town meeting at a time.

Hear ye, hear ye! By order of the remaining elders, you are hereby summoned to the first official town meeting of Goody!, a spiritual inquest into the recent vanishings, visions, and Beast-related disturbances plaguing our blessed 1600s Puritan village. Join us for proceedings that will feature sketch comedy, original music, and immersive elements. Also it will be really fun... Yay!

The meeting shall be led by October Brian (Goodman Michael Salles Holtzman, Goodman Jackson Viccora, Goodman John O’Neill, and Goody Katherine Coates), a sketch comedy council who have been performing together for over ten years. Their past appearances include the BBC, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and in theaters around Chicago. Join them this May at The Annoyance Theater for revelations, reckonings, and the rising of the Beast.
