Encyclopedia Show & Ginger Snaps Burlesque Double Feature!!

On Thursday, January 12th The Encyclopedia Show and Ginger Snaps Burlesque will be bringing you a DOUBLE FEATURE!!!

Your evening starts with The Encyclopedia Show Presents Exercise at 7:30pm!

THE ENCYCLOPEDIA SHOW, Austin’s premiere event for learning and laughter
combined with all the excitement of a variety show.

Each month, a clutch of volunteering writers are given assignments picked from a REAL LIVE encyclopedia. Stand-up comics, writers of fiction, page & stage poets and some miscellaneous weirdos will share their takes on the topics at hand!

You’ll learn true things and some things that are… less true. This is the way school should have been run!

Comedian Caroline Bassett
Poet Anis Mojgani
Professor Matt Morris
Artist Leah Moss
Burlesque by Miss Fahrenheit
