  • Laundry & Bourbon with Lonestar

    Laundry and Bourbon with Lonestar, two companion one act plays set in backyards of a small Texas town. Three ladies come together to talk about their life's ups and downs. Lonestar follows the life of three small town boys and the events that have shaped them. Both shows give us highs & lows with humor spread around, for good measure.

    Mike MacRae

    The Thinking Person's Comedian, or just a damned fine impressionist? How about: both, in one Austin-based human (and "Frank TV" veteran) who uses his comedy skills to explore the zone of insanity where politics, pop culture, and the media collide. Bonus: Joe Tullar, Danny Goodwin, Carina Magyar, and Andrew Murphy, and the whole gang of 'em hosted by Roxy Castillo.
    Tue., Aug. 29, 8pm. $7-11.
