The sublime Maggie Crane is bringing her hilarious solo show to The Howland as part of our “ARTICHOKE Presents” series! I had the pleasure of seeing “Side By Side” at the Edinburgh Fringe three years ago and begged Maggie to bring her show to Beacon. We at the ARTICHOKE are big Maggie Crane fans, and soon you will be too! The evening will be hosted by Jamie Mulligan. Tix are available right now at artichokeshow.com.
THIS WEDNESDAY, come to Norma’s to cheer on the newest grads of the ARTICHOKE Storytelling Workshop! So many amazing stories in this group!
Featuring:
Rebecca Cossa
Kris LaRocca
Magdalen Radovich
Brent Spodek
Feff Zezza

Hi storytelling friends,
Due to a personal emergency, we need to cancel our March 14 ARTICHOKE main stage show at The Howland Cultural Center in Beacon.
This was not an easy decision. Producing The ARTICHOKE and gathering together for these evenings of story and community is one of my greatest joys. I’m deeply grateful for your support and understanding during this time.
All ticket purchases will be fully refunded. Refunds will be processed automatically through our ticketing system and may take a few days to appear. Thank you in advance for your patience.
We look forward to being back together in May.
With appreciation,
Drew Prochaska
