Music farm is thrilled to present Henry Riggs and Friends: A Night of Improv Comedy on Wednesday, October 20th at 8pm. You might know him from Nameless Numberhead. You might know him from Theatre 99. You might not know him at all. Henry Riggs has been bringing the laughs to Charleston for over a decade. He is committed to growing comedy performance and education for aspiring writers, performers, improvisers, and artists all over the Southeast. We also think he is one of the funniest humans we have ever met. This show will be a night of fully improvised comedy, built almost entirely off of audience suggestion with maybe a few surprises sprinkled in. Come on and laugh with us already!

This performance will be fully seated. First come first serve for general admission seats.

“Who are those guys? Poets or something? I always see them around coffeeshops…no laptops…weird…are they artists? Philosophers?…They seem like they must be around 40…”

“Reveries” is the collected memoirs of two mysterious drifters, presented live as a back-and-forth telling of surreal stories, bizarre one-liners, and off-kilter observations of a strange world. Anthony Oberbeck and Matt Barats as the stoic nomads are accompanied by ambient music and abstract video montages in a show that is part stand-up, part psychedelic coffeeshop Happening.

“…like an Ayahuasca session conducted by Mitch Hedberg.” - Vulture

Chucktown Comedy Supreme is the ultimate combo of all the tasty stuff. You got your salty sketch comedy, you got your top shelf stand up comedy, you got that sweet & savory improv comedy, and you got a pipin' hot local band bringing all the chunky hits. It’s a little bit of everything you love so don't sleep on this good ass time!

Plus Park Circle is super rad. Catch dinner and a show. Grab some drink afterwards. Make it a thing! We promise you won’t be disappointed.

Featuring:
Deshawn Mason - Stand Up
Ratio Girls - Sketch
Matt Perry, Stephan Hughes, Alexandra Bennett, Josh Christian, Maari Suorsa, & Henry Riggs - Improv
The Real Good News Experience - Music

$5 Improv & Sketch show at Theatre 99 featuring Nameless Numberhead.

It’s that magical time of the year in Charleston where thousands of hundreds will descend on the lowcountry to pretend they care about the arts. Hurray!! That’s right it’s Spoleto season and your favorite Officially Unofficial Spoleto event is back: Rip City CHS presents the Ripolo Citleto Festival!

We may not be directly involved with that big ole festival that is taking over our city, but we’d sure love to capitalize on the sudden interest in artsy events. You’ll get all the fresh comedy you can handle for just 5 american dollars. And the Holy City Brewery has plenty of delicious craft beer that pairs perfectly with laughter. Rip City CHS is back in full force and Ripolo Citleto is sure to be a nice comedy time.

Location to be announced.

As Charleston develops itself into oblivion, we gather with comedy, music, and insanity to bid a slow farewell or R.I.P. City.

This month is Rips-Giving: A gluttonous indulgence of earthly delights. Are you in town for the feast and suffocated by the love and political passions of your family? Then escape to Redux Contemporary Arts Center and give thanks for the simpler things in life.

Rip City is a completely new show every month that features a rotating cast of lovable favorites from America's NUMBER ONE CITY!?!?!?!?! Original Characters, Sketches, Music, Puppetry, Performance Arts, all that wacky whatnot. See the show that Conde Naste doesn't even know exists!

After a summer hiatus, Nameless Numberhead is back this month with a new show at Theatre 99. Joining them for a night of comedy and music will be the boys of The Petty Couch Podcast and a Very Hypnotic Soul Band trio.

Tickets are $8 in advanced, $10 at the door
Purchase tickets here: https://goo.gl/syPspq

NAMELESS NUMBERHEAD is Maari Suorsa and Henry Riggs, a character driven sketch comedy show about you and the weird routines and habits you exhibit everyday. Self identified as surveillance chic, Nameless Numberhead exposes our obsession with voyeurism of the mundane. www.numberheadcomedy.com

THE PETTY COUCH PODCAST is stand-up comics Hagan Ragland and Jon Antoine talking shit and being petty. The two hosts, with their sound guy Brandon Bair, interview local comedians, crack wise about local topics, and just hangout on air for an hour of target-destroying humor. https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-petty-couch-episode-7/id1175918736?i=1000386106778

VERY HYPNOTIC SOUL BAND is an alt R&B and hip hop group from Charleston, SC. Formed initially for Charleston Music Hall's Hi Harmony community concert in the wake of the tragedy at Emanuel AME Church, the band members came together less in a conscious desire to make music and more with the sense that this type of music was needed.

Before the city develops itself into oblivion and art is declared illegal, you should try Nameless Numberhead & Friends! It's a new show deigned as a brain and nerve tonic that you won't find in any normal snake oil. It's a cure all for those down in the dumps, internet wormhole, political overload type days.

That's right folks, 3 different acts and a musical guest take over Theatre 99 late night to bring together a whole mess of great artists.

It's the very last Rip City in the current Redux location. Come hang out as we say goodbye to a building we will forever refer to as "The Old Redux".

Rip City is a monthly comedy variety show that features original sketches, music, solo characters, and anything in between from the weirder side of Charleston artists.

Show is $5

Line Up: TBA

Rip City is Charleston’s favorite monthly variety comedy show that takes place in an art gallery. It's a claim so specifc, it has to be true. This summer, we're teaming up with PULP Gallery and Bookstore for their summer “Stir Fry LIVE” Series. 

Each show is completely different featuring a rotating cast of comedians, musicians, actors, poets, animal handlers, nudity enthusiasts, and anything else that might lean more on the experimental side. You never know what you'll see at Rip City but odds are you’ll be very entertained. Probably goes without saying but leave the kids at home for this one.

This months Line Up TBD

Tickets are $5

Maari Suorsa and Henry Riggs have been performing sketch comedy in Charleston under the alias Nameless Numberhead for almost 2 years now. The duo is compiling their best written material and throwing it all in one big funny pile of a show. This hour-ish long sketch comedy show promises to as brilliantly dumb as it is stupidly smart. See the show that everyone is calling “Ooooo, haven’t seen them yet, but I’ve really been meaning to!” Even though the Charleston based comedy duo can be seen regularly at the monthly Rip City show, they are back at Theatre 99 for one night only that you won’t want to miss. Unless of course you do want to miss it, in which case, who cares. Live your life.
