Are you ready to be transformed? ✨

Though it opens with a voyage into the stars, *A Fine Madness* is still a deeply human, grounded, and communal experience anchored by the brilliant, award-winning Justin Weaks. With masterful storytelling, Justin carries us through his story of personal transformation through HIV, exploring who we are as individuals and as a community on the other side of COVID and disease.

This isn’t just theater you watch—it’s a space where we play games, share tea, and join the journey together. The DU team had the honor of catching it last Saturday at Woolly Mammoth’s home base, and we are so thrilled to host its next stop in the tunnel next weekend.

Come be part of the circle.

It’s 1967 New York in the age of live television, and an aging silver screen legend is slated to appear on the top-rated late night sketch comedy show, the King Kiser Comedy Hour.

A young writer (based on the life of Mel Brooks) is tasked with keeping her sober and on script for the broadcast, while comedy writer veterans navigate the tumultuous changes in American society during the burgeoning era of rock and roll, Vietnam, feminism and the youth revolution.
