What the Hell Is a 401K?? & Carnival of Sorts

Two shows in one hour!


"What the Hell Is a 401(k)?"- Watch Danya navigate religion, identity, bad dates, and even worse life choices, all while her bangs block her view of reality (because she hasn’t trimmed them in three months). A 30-minute masterclass on how to succeed in life, so you too can become a comedian and give pride to the parents who thought you’d go to medical school.


About the artist: Danya Goldstein is a bisexual (90% lesbian, 10% hopeful) Cuban-Jewish comedian based in New York City. She writes and performs about identity, family, dating, and navigating early adulthood. Catch her live at shows around NYC and follow her on Instagram @danyacomedy


Carnival of Sorts


Erik Bartlett is a Cape Cod native and Boston-based actor/comedian, circus performer, and former professional cotton candy maker. Though classically trained, he claims his real education came from Coney Island, not theatre school. His lifelong dream of running away with the circus became reality when he toured with the oldest and one of the last remaining traditional American carnival sideshows. After honing his skills on the fairgrounds of the country, he’s eager to perform his madcap blend of comedy, circus, and escapology for the hometown audiences of the Boston Fringe Festival!
