Event Details

May 22 + 23 @ 8pm / Doors Open @ 7:30pm
$20-40 Sliding Scale

Two explorers crash their submarine at the bottom of the ocean and embark on an epic, madcap journey from the ocean floor to the sky and back — conjuring a vivid world of flora and fauna from absolutely nothing. Nonstop, breathless, and gloriously absurd, this is physical comedy at its most fearless: not a word is spoken, and no two shows are ever the same. Award-winning and world-touring since 2009, The Submarine Show has claimed “Best of Fringe” at San Francisco, NYC, and Kansas City Fringe Festivals and a “Hot Pick” from the Edinburgh Scotsman.
