Feature Me
More than 15 comics will be performing in hopes of getting passed at The Creek and The Cave. These comics are hand picked by staff members to showcase in front of Rebecca The Booker. I’m betting a lot of comics are wishing they’d tipped better.

Booked touring professionals and local favorites battle amateurs (by random bucket pull)
for the throne—and a cash prize.

big laughs. Share what’s on your mind, then sit back, and watch the
comedians dive in headfirst (or sideways!) to give their hilarious take.
This is the show you didn’t know you needed—and guaranteed to be

Caitlin Cook: The Writing On The Stall
Fresh from its sold-out Off-Broadway debut and selection as a New York Times’ critic’s pick, Caitlin Cook’s hit bathroom graffiti musical is a comedic, musical, and theatrical sensation. This is a show for comedy nerds, musical theater kids, art history buffs, and anyone who's ever seen something written in a bathroom and thought, "I wonder who wrote that?" Confessional, immersive, and uproariously funny, this one-of-a-kind show—literally set in a dive bar bathroom—transforms graffiti scrawled all over the stalls into the lyrics of her original songs and trail markers along the journey she takes us upon. Through these irreverent, poignant, and often obscene messages, Cook reckons with our shared humanity and what we owe each other. May include: slingshotted panties, milk pistols, and a cowboy dick (complete, with spurs!)
Fresh from its sold-out Off-Broadway debut, Caitlin Cook brings you her hit bathroom graffiti musical This is a show for comedy nerds, musical theater kids, art history buffs, and anyone who's ever seen something written in a bathroom and thought, "I wonder who wrote that?"
