Laugh
During this pandemic we have had to close operations at our brick and mortar Comedy House in Downtown Oshkosh, however we didn’t pause the laughs.
We are Live Streaming Comedy Shows every Friday and Saturday night at 9:00 PM.
Our cast performs from the safety of their homes while you laugh from the safety of yours. No pants? No problem! You do you!
Also as a complete added bonus to moving online we have been able to have Backlot Alumni perform with us! Such as Luke and Micah from L.A. and Sean from Michigan!

written and performed by: April Wish
directed by: Brandon Sean Pearson
Following MY NAME IS MOMMY, April Wish's second solo show, MOMMY MONSTER, is shrouded in dandelions, smothered in butterfly kisses and buried in laundry. It is a hysterical, affectionate and searing portrait of modern motherhood. Achingly loving and daringly personal, Wish lays bare the realities of mom rage and examines a mother's love that is so big, so wild, it burns like the sun.
Born of parenting through a pandemic, the work explores the complexities of sibling relationships and the impossibility of perfection while asking: how do you raise a good, kind, gentle boy in a world - in a country - that isn't always good or kind... and is never gentle?
MOMMY MONSTER is Zooming live from April's living room to yours!
This show is being presented as a virtual gathering. The audience is invited to interact with the material, as the chat will be open and director Brandon Sean Pearson will be leading a question and answer discussion immediately following the performance.
