OBERON NEW WORKS SERIES-CLUBLAND

Presented by OBERON and Retrop Productions

Monday, January 28th at 8:00pm

FREE ADMISSION

In this exciting series of new work by promising artists, OBERON will give a first look at emerging talent in a unique workshop setting. Local artists inspired by OBERON itself, share works in progress within the immersive, social and groundbreaking world of Club Theater that OBERON is known for.

On January 28th, the series kicks off with CLUBLAND, a monster pop party written by AnDrew Barret Cox and directed by Jacob S. Porter. Based on the book "Party Monster" by James St. James, CLUBLAND dives into the extravagant lifestyle of ClubKids (ambassadors of the drug-induced dancehall culture that made headlines in the early 1990s). The events and characters of CLUBLAND mirror real-life Club Kids Michael Alig, James St. James, and the murder of Andre "Angel" Melendez. Premiering at OBERON, CLUBLAND will throw you into the limelight and you may never come back again.

CLUBLAND has been created with special permission by James St. James.

YOU'RE THE EXPERT

Tuesday, February 5^th at 8:00pm

Tickets $12

You're the Expert bridges the worlds of comedy and academia, attracting a comedy audience while providing them with meaningful content. Each show features an expert in a somewhat obscure field. A group of hilarious comedians try to guess what in the world our expert studies all day long. Afterwards, the expert dissects how wildly wrong (or right) the ideas about her field were. The show ends with an interview where we find out what our expert does and why their field is important. It's funny, it's interactive, and you end up actually learning something.

LUNAR LABRYINTH
