This production assembles a dynamic trio of powerhouse performers—Kim Schroeder Long, Bonnie G., and Siobhan Velarde—who serve up a potent cocktail of iconic anthems from musical theatre, pop, and rock. From the defiant rage of "Cell Block Tango" to the liberating strains of "I Will Survive," this show is a cathartic celebration of karma, closure, and moving on with style.

In this raw and poignant one-woman show, acclaimed author and storyteller Carole Eglash-Kosoff takes the stage to share a lifetime of hard-won wisdom. With unflinching honesty and a healthy dose of humor, she reflects on the cyclical patterns of history, politics, and personal life that we all recognize but often feel powerless to change. From the social upheavals of the 1960s to today's political landscape, Carole connects the dots, asking why we never seem to learn from the past. This compelling, thought-provoking narrative is beautifully underscored by the rich, live musical accompaniment of the Rahn Coleman Trio. Their soulful jazz and blues-infused melodies provide the perfect emotional landscape for this powerful personal journey. I've Seen This Sh*t Before is an unforgettable evening of brilliant storytelling and superb music, urging us to pay attention, learn from our collective history, and find the courage to break the cycle.
Comedian Phil Johnson Exceptance
Saturday February 7th at 8:00PM
Phil Johnson delivers a high-energy comedy experience that seamlessly blends stand-up and music. With a sharp eye for the absurd and a linguist’s love of wordplay, he tackles topics like tech, body image, race, and American weirdness - all delivered from the viewpoint of a guy who happily grew up in the deeply multi-everything community of the San Francisco Bay Area. Phil’s material is smart, satirical, and unafraid to ask bigger questions while still chasing the laugh. He’s been featured at the Sundance Film Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, on Sirius/XM, Bob & Tom Radio, and Amazon Prime. Phil has released multiple comedy specials and albums that showcase his signature blend of tightly written jokes, catchy (and occasionally naughty) songs, and a performer’s instinct for balancing insight with irreverence.
