Get In, It’s An “Adult Swim” Drag Show!

Long ago before there was Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu, people were stuck watching cable TV and suffered through whatever was playing at the time. Many insomniacs and late-night party people were driven to watch either Nick at Nite reruns or infomercials when the clock struck midnight. Then a beacon of hope emerged from the brilliant minds at Cartoon Network to create young adult programming for those of us still fighting off Mr. Sandman.

With shows like Family Guy, Dethklok, Futurama, Robot Chicken, the Oblongs, Aqua Teen Hunger Force and more, Adult Swim has become an ethos in entertainment!

Come join us as we celebrate these shows & more as our Dragsters bring them to life on the stage. As with any Curiosities of Drag production, there will be games, prizes, a raffle, and more fun than should be legal!

You, Me, and Astrology // Free Fringe Philly

Performer Nikki Hartung is bringing her show You, Me, and Astrology to Tattooed Mom as part of Free Fringe Philly!

8:30pm Show // FREE // 21+

Sometimes life events happen that make you want to understand yourself and the world around you on a deeper level… to make sense of the chaos that flows around us and within us… and sometimes, we just want to be entertained. Western horoscopes can be just that; Guidance, explanation & gosh darn fun. In this work in progress show, Nikki explores the 12 zodiac signs through characters, personal essay and song in the hopes of –like many 20 something, city-living millennials– understanding more of the world around her and herself. Mixed as well with some dance, real horoscopes and — a face mask?! #taurusbaby”

**Please note this show is a work in progress. Like our lives… so be kind :)**

Check out more Free Fringe Philly shows here.

Enjoy half price drafts before & during the event from 5-7pm and 10-11pm,
plus half price tots & $2.50 Miller High Life 7pm til midnight!
