HIGH NOTES WITH TESSA SKARA
High Notes is a monthly high-energy, queer AF, and rock-n-roll-as-hell live musical comedy show hosted by the self proclaimed Rock Goddess of Comedy: Tessa Skara. Featuring a backing band of basement rockstars, High Notes is a show that brings together a revolving roster of stand up comedians, cabaret performers and musicians to belt out numbers on the meaning of life, love, and how kombucha tastes like salad dressing (which is why it's perfect!). If you’re looking for a night of live music, jokes jokes jokes, and moody acoustic ruminations on how selfish it is of your therapist to go on maternity leave then High Notes is the show for you!

Hosted by Tessa Skara & the High Notes Band
Featuring Rebecca O'Neal, Ana Fabrega, Friends Who Folk, Nika Z, and Karolena Theresa.

Friday, April 19. 8pm.
