Submitted by the Event Organizer

Thrillpeddlers celebrate the 40th anniversary of the gender-bending theatrical troupe The Cockettes with this psychedelic musical inspired by sin-soaked Old Shanghai and Busby Berkeley movie musicals from Hollywood’s Golden Age.

The show, which has been extended through December 19th, celebrates with a one night only pay-what-you-can performance on December 2nd.

Pay-What-You-Can Pearls
Benefit Performance on Thursday, December 2nd at 8 pm

On Thursday, December 2 at 8 pm Thrillpeddlers will present a pay-what-you-can “Pearls” performance.  This gives us a chance to brush up the show after taking the holiday off, brings you in for what you think you can afford, and benefits the great work of The St. Anthony Foundation.  Doors open at 7:30 for the 8:00 pm performance and seating is first come, first served.  Here’s a bit about what your donation and the cast and crew’s performances that night will support:

“St. Anthony Foundation is San Francisco’s oldest and largest non-profit charity that serves 3,000 people a day across 8 different programs including a free medical clinic,  job training / computer program,  free clothing, inpatient drug and alcohol recovery, housing for seniors, social work, and  serves 2,600 meals a day in our Dining Room”
