An e-mail broadcast has gone out – get tickets to the first week of Moisture Festival before it sells out! That’s right, the one, the only Moisture Festival Variete/Comedy show has returned to Fremont, and Hale’s Palladium. Starting on St. Patty’s Day (March 17th) to run through Sunday, April 10th (with the not-to-be-missed April Fool’s Show on April 1st,) the frivolous fun, tremendous talent and wacky weirdness will be on-display through a series of always unique vaudevillian performances. Tickets can be purchased through Brown Paper Tickets, as well as at the doors…unless they sell out!
While the show will go on at Hale’s Palladium for the full four weeks of the Festival, they also offer shows at other venues including the Open Space on Vashon and the Georgetown Ballroom which will both play host a weekend each. A special screening of The Adventures of Prince Achmed will be accompanied by live performances at the SIFF Cinema on Monday, April 4th. And, of course, the Burlesque and Grand Variete shows, done in the round, will return to ACT – A Contemporary Theatre, for two weeks.
Moisture Festival offers a wonderful, impressive line-up of over 100 professional performers – of every stripe, stamp and skill imaginable. Seriously. The Moisture Festival website offers a glimpse – in words and photos – of who you will be able to see, and when. Check out the Comedy/Variete artists’ page to see Festival favorites such as Godfrey Daniels, Poppy Daze, and Nanda – plus many new acts to the show this year including Neonman, and Scot Nery. The Burlesque Artists’ page also shows a taunting tease about each of the performers, including Trixie Little & The Evil Hate Monkey, Inga Ingenue, and Ernie Von Schmaltz.
The list of performers gives specific dates that each will appear, for those who choose their tickets based on what they wish to see. Or, just buy a ticket already and go see what all the fuss is about… Tickets for Hale’s Palladium can be purchased at Brown Paper Tickets. For the other venues, consult the Moisture Festival website.
