GIB STRANGE HAS SOMETHING TO SAY

Thursday Nov 9th @ 7:30pm, Gib Strange will read a letter of his own creation at the next To Whom It May Concern. Knowing Gib, it will be something to think about long after the fact.

Gib Strange is a writer living in Washington. Poet Dennis McBride has described him as, “a kind of everyman’s Kierkegaard… His domestic genius is his ability to evoke sympathy for the absurd in the tragic comedy of being human.” Comic Brett Emerson has described him as “Ed Gein doing ASMR.” He is the author of the audiobook Notes From the Uncanny Valley, available at https://notesfromtheuncannyvalley.com

NEXT LETTER SHOW

Thursday November 9th 7:30pm. Tickets on sale now!

We are always looking for letters. Have a letter you’d like to submit whether it’s real, old, very old or entirely made-up? We’d love to hear from you. Head on over to the submissions page and drop us a line. And to answer an age old debate, in our humble opinion email DOES count as a letter. On text messages we’re still undecided.

ROBIN CORSBERG

Robin is our Special Guest Improviser Fri, Sept 29th!

Robin Corsberg started as an army brat, graduated from a small town high school, went to college and had a much better time tending bar. Searching for comedy stages and the American dream – Robin found herself in Bellingham for a number of years performing a lot of improv with a lot of her childhood Comedy Central Hero’s (Comedy Central used to be a lot different.) From Kevin McDonald (Kids in the Hall) to Ryan Stiles (Whose  line is it anyway?) Robin learned her funny could keep up with what she saw as great. Playing in Granville Island Canada, Seattle, all over the Midwest to Atlanta Georgia, Robin is constantly amazed just where and how improv has opened doors.  Expect nothing. I think that is the trick!

JANET OAKLEY

LOCAL AUTHOR JANET OAKLEY JOINS THE SEPT 29TH SHOW

A bonafide history nerd, Janet Oakley grew up back east on the stories of pioneering women settling the West, a housewright from Upper Nether Wallop, England, arriving in the colonies in 1638, and in particular, the pocket journals and letters of her great-grandfather who found himself only two months into his role of assistant surgeon of the 11th PA on the battlefield of Gettysburg, July 1863. All this led to a degree in history and finally, writing historical fiction set here in the NW and WWII Norway.
