The Weirdo Show presents: The Schadenfreude Circus!

Its a brand new year and the Weirdo Show is starting strong! It's been a month and a half since the last show and I know you are missing the fun, missing the variety, missing a Sprocket! Well miss no more and fear even less, because the Weirdo Show is back and already have we got a show brewing for you!

Sitting pretty at the Bier Baron, we now have to comfort of EVERY FOURTH SATURDAY OF THE MONTH! Holy cow its a set date! Mark your calendars you buncha Weirdos! The Weirdo Show is going to some, well...weird places over the next year. I cant talk too much about it, but there will be puppets at some point.

But enough of that! What have we got for you in January?????

Professor Sprocket is not a bragging man, but by some fancy wheeling and dealing (tears and begging) we managed to get THE SCHADENFREUDE CIRCUS! (https://www.facebook.com/Hooligancentral)

Ladies and Gentlemen: Step right up! Come witness the most fascinating show with strange sideshow sights scarcely seen for decades. Astounding feats and amazing oddities! No tricks, no illusions; performing feats of human endurance and curiosities!

Lazlo and Lady Riggy will astound you with their perfect blend of old-school Sideshow and new-school shenanigans...with a bit of fun in-between! Their magnificent and macabre acts might excite you...might offend you...but we promise you will remember us for the rest of your life. No rehearsals, unscripted, without a net. Trained by the best in the business and paranoid about everything, The Schadenfreude Circus will give you a taste of the kind of entertainment that has made mere mortals into myths and legends!
But don't take their word for it, take Jim Rose's:

"They've led horses to water and made them drink..even changed them in mid stream..they can tango in 3s or solo but would never take 2 because that would be ordinary and The Schadenfreude Circus are the opposite of that.when I watch them it feels like biblical times..miracles are happening everywhere........................" -Jim Rose

That aint it either folks!

Straight from Charm City herself, Kay Sera!

"21st Century Burlesque calls Kay Sera, 'an imaginative and memorable performer.' Burlesque Beat describes her performance as, 'both stagily clever and wordily punny. ' And international burlesque star Trixie Little says, 'What has been seen cannot be unseen.' Whether she's turning a trope on its ear, poking fun at a societal norm or playing up on pop culture, Kay Sera is always over the top and under the influence."

For the musical entertainment for the evening, we have none other than Madame Baska D'Joy!

Q. What's the definition of a gentleman?
A. Someone who knows how to play the accordion and doesn't.

Good thing Madame Baska D'Joy is most definitely not a gentleman. We checked. Repeatedly.

She is, however, a singer, actor, and artist. . . with a filthy accordion habit. A Native Vermonter the Madame survived the 1990's using the wonderful healing powers of grunge, alternative, and classic rock music to combat cabin fever and the accordion to keep the Canadians on their side of the border. Now that the Madame has migrated south, she's proud to be a weird little cog in the vibrant DC theatre and arts machine, where she's been a Jill of All Trades for years; mostly the offbeat, weird, and oversexed trades. She's the taller half of DC's first, only, and last ukulele and accordion duo, Ukecordionpacolyse who rocked our collective Capital Region socks off, and taught us all that rock and roll can never die (even if you try to murder it on the ukulele and accordion). Here to kick off her 2014 Unplugged Comeback Tour, promote her new musical workshop, "Ladies in Pain: Topless Accordion Playing for the Buxom Bombshell Beginner," is Madame Baska D'Joy and her rocking squeezebox!

And as always, your humble host Professor Sprocket brings his unstoppable bally that has been known to make audiences burst into spontaneous applause!

If you can only see one show this month, come see this one!
