Benoît François’ "Total Modeling" is an absurd avant-clown show about cybernetics on a boat. Part lecture, part throwdown featuring a blind drunk, his invisible man, third birds, and a domesticated ass. A philosophical odyssey weaving together professional wrestling and existential despair. Losing sight, finding vision.

Come gather around the campfire as we shed light on the death of the American ash tree, and consider what it means to be human in a world losing its flame. Join Philly Fringe veteran, Nick Schwasman, in his debut solo work, “Ashes to Ashes,” a fireside performance for small audiences.

Lee Minora, the writer/performer of Nosejob and White Feminist, returns with a slippery, sparkling, and savage new solo show: Baby Everything. Directed by Lightning Rod Special’s Alice Yorke (Lions, The Appointment). You’ll laugh. You’ll flinch. You’ll feel seen—too seen.

Philadelphia-based-born and raised singer-songwriter-dancer-choreographer. BRYANT is a powerhouse vocalist who creates music that serves love on a silver platter. Come, enjoy the autumnal MAAS Garden vibes with tunes that'll make your heart soar.

Standing at the intersection of traditions of Moroccan Gnawa music and bold futurism, Imal Gnawa seeks to weave together ritualistic trance acoustic elements with futuristic aesthetics, creating a soundscape that is as timeless as it is avant-garde.

The Philly Clown Slam is an ever-evolving beast of an event - a vehicle (clown car?) for clowns of any kind to come and experiment, and the cast of characters is rotating! We like it this way. 

Ira Khonen Temple’s debut album Strange Tongue - Mistame Loshn is an exuberant and irreverent entanglement with Yiddish protest music, love songs, and anthems.  It’s queer, trans antifolk music that’s informed by klezmer and Romanian dance. It’s totally bilingual and an amazing gateway into a defiant tradition of survival and solidarity. Raucous and intimate in turns, this music makes as much space for joy as it does for grief.

Saxophonist, composer and improviser Cole Pulice traffics in shimmering, otherworldly beauty. On Land’s End Eternal, their first album for Leaving Records (releasing May 9th), the Oakland-based artist expands their compositional palette beyond signal-processed saxophone to include layers of electric guitar and lush choral arrangements.
