Harmon LeonAs precursor to Thrillpeddlers’ spring show, “Flaming Sin: London’s Grand Guignol“, The Hypnodrome proudly presents four special nights in March when our resident wild-man Harmon Leon revs up his new one-man show (bound later this month for Ireland’s prestigious Galway Comedy Festival).

Starting March 1 for three consecutive Saturday nights and ending with a St. Patrick’s Day bash on Monday March 17, Harmon will fine-tune his latest work live for Hypnodrome audiences before he turns the stage (and screen) over to Thrillpeddlers for a sneak preview of their American Premiere production of Noel Coward’s Grand Guignol comedy “The Better Half” (March 1 only), “blue” bonus variety acts as well as special guests Dead Channels’ vintage film shorts and ‘une petite runion du Cockettes fabuleux!’

Fabulous Cockettes at the HypnodromeFor those of you who don’t speak French, or are too sober-minded to figger it out, that translates to “a little reunion of the fabulous Cockettes!” Yes, original members of San Francisco’s best and brightest Ridiculous Theatre revue troupe come together offering up clips and quips from Rumi Missabu’s one-man memoir “A Cocktail of Glamour and Anarchy” bound for it’s own European tour, readings and signings by “Sweet Pam” Tent of her gripping yarn “Midnight at The Palace: My Life as a Fabulous Cockette”, Harlo (an original “Plaster-Caster”, lovable niece to Eva Braun and the inspiration for Miss Piggie) and Fayette Hauser (sharing her personal collection of Cockette’s photos and lurid true-tales). Cockettes take to The ‘drome for one night only on Saturday, March 15.
