Known as the King of Rant, LEWIS BLACK uses his

trademark style of comedic yelling and animated finger-pointing to skewer anything and anyone that gets under his skin. His comedic brilliance lies in his ability to make people laugh at the absurdities of life, with topics that include current events, social media, politics and anything else that exposes the hypocrisy and madness he sees in the world. Receiving critical acclaim as a stand-up, actor and author, Black has performed for audiences throughout Europe, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. In 2012, he performed eight sell-out shows at Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway. Since 2014 Lewis Black has done over 400 live streaming shows, called THE RANT IS DUE, at the end of each of his standup performances. Adding his own unique style, Lewis delivers audience-written Rants which have been submitted from the fans at his show and throughout the world. These rants are now available on Lewis Black’s podcast, Rant Cast. Born in Washington D.C. on Aug. 30, 1948, Black was raised in Silver Spring, MD. Colicky as a baby, he was destined to be angry and easily irritated. His mother, a teacher, and his father, a mechanical engineer, instilled the importance of education and the necessity to question authority—lessons that influenced Black throughout his life

THE USED
7:00pm-10:00pm, Posting public events
When Bert McCracken says that the songs that

comprise Toxic Positivity are some of the most sincere he has ever written, you know he doesn’t speak those words lightly. For as long as he can remember, McCracken has used music as an outlet to lay bare his innermost thoughts and emotions. For 23 years, that writing has enabled The Used to deeply resonate with fans the world over. Exploding off the back of universally adored rock anthems such as ‘The Taste Of Ink’, ‘Take It Away’ and ‘Pretty Handsome Awkward’, the many millions of streams and record sales (including the platinum-certified The Used and In Love And Death) their career has yielded are one thing; the human connection formed between artist and audience is priceless, however. To that end alone, The Used can consider themselves four of the luckiest and richest men in music.

celebrating the life, works, and inspiration of Edgar Allan Poe. This year, we will be performing a series of pieces that are performed by two people, including Poe favorites The Cask of Amontillado, The Angel of the Odd, Fall of the House of Usher, Never Bet The Devil Your Head, and The Sphinx, as well as some pieces by writers inspired by Poe's work. There will be an intermission. 100% of funds raised through the silent auction items will benefit water conservation. The Poe Project is a month-long festival springing off with Poe Week from October 1st through 7th annually, culminating on the date of Edgar Allan Poe's death. We invest in our community by giving a portion of the proceeds from each and every event to the local non-profit of the sponsor’s choice. The Poe Project is spearheaded and presented by Geek Parties of the Grand Valley. The sponsor of Dark Duos is Edgewater Brewery.

and Lyrics by Mark Hollman, Book and Lyrics by Greg Kotis February 29-March 9 Rated PG (mild profanity, sexual innuendo) In a dystopian, not-so-distant future, a water shortage has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The poor are oppressed under a corrupt monopoly until a revolt is led by a brave young hero. Offering a fresh perspective on the musical theatre genre, Urinetown is a hilarious and irreverent satirical musical in which no one is safe from scrutiny.
