Yarn

A comedy storytelling show especially for women who are “Hollywood old.” Over 29. All are welcome. The best from the Bay and beyond give you something funny and substantial.

NOW AT: The beautiful Shotgun Players Ashby Stage 1901 Ashby Ave Berkeley View map dedicated to Yarn on certain Monday nights. Enjoy a beverage, if you choose. Have a shmei and meet some nice people. The theatre is right next to the Ashby BART. No late entrance.

No heckling, no drink minimum, all heart.

Sponsored comps available (except for the CJM show) for those who can’t afford the show right now, just get in touch: yarn@subvert.com. Yarn sells Patron tickets to back these. Performers are paid. I’m letting you know because that’s not always the case at comedy and storytelling shows. It’s important.

Many thanks to the ExCappa Foundation for sponsoring Yarn and supporting women artists.
