That's Weird Grandma

I know Monkey Fan, I know. It’s been a long couple of weeks without “That’s Weird, Grandma” in your life.

We’re sorry about that, but our performers need a break and the Neos need a chance to tech their upcoming holiday show (which is going to be awesome). So we’re on hiatus for one more week.

We’ll be back next week and you’ll see some holiday stories start to work their way in pretty quickly. Just what is Santa’s favorite game?

School Workshops

Six weeks ago we started at a new school.  Although this was the first time Dixie, Sam, Jen, Rachel, Brad and I had walked through the front doors armed with paper, markers and over 60 fresh Barrel of Monkeys Journals, it was a school we’d all seen many times.  Close to many of our homes, even in the same zip-code as some of our mail, right across from The Neo-Futurarium, the theater we’ve been running That’s Weird, Grandma in for over 5 years!

Reminder: No show tonight!

General That's Weird Grandma

Friendly Reminder: there’s no “That’s Weird, Grandma” tonight.

If you head to the theater, you’ll be treated to the last performance of Theater Oobleck’s election play. Which I hear good things about, but I’m pretty sure is not written by children.

We’re off next week too, and the week after. But we’ll be back well-rested and ready for the holiday season on November 24th!
