Next up: Catastrophic Theatre presents Lydia Lunch. Horribly True Confessions combines the dynamic spoken word histrionics of Lydia Lunch, one of the genre's most controversial performers with the improvisational virtuosity of Weasel Walter to create an intimate, terrifying and even hilarious evening of musical verité.

Tonight is the very last night of HAPPINESS. Only three seats left. We always can get more people in for ledge seating. 713-522-2723 to get on that list. We have some overflow seating (called the "Loft") that can accommodate up to 9 people, but may not be right for everyone. You can get a general idea of it here. If it looks good to you, call us at 713-522-2723 to reserve your spot.
