Tonight: You Can't Do That on Comedy Tour! at Space 1026

So we're not going to pretend to know any more solid facts about this event than you do. Let's see: We've got a lineup of Brian Blomerth, Frankie Martin and Eyeballz, Andrew Jeffrey Wright and a few TBAs. (Wright is a local artist who also makes pretty tees for Art in the Age.) It's ostensibly a comedy show. But a comedy show that's like, subversive or something. And about art. Oh wait, here's a note from one of the performers about last night's show in Baltimore. Surely that'll clear things up:

So we will be in my hometown tonight at my home space, Space 1026. Philly, get ready for some serious experimental theater! You are not going to see any of this this stuff on PBS! Last night we performed at Tarantula Hill in Baltimore. With the exception of when Brian Blomerth was onstage the room was kind of crickety. Brian has a great act based on art therapy, gender roles and whether the microphone works or not. The evening had a lot of festivities, a cat show, a food eating contest, a baking contest as well as our four acts and videos. The caretakers of Tarantula Hill, Twig and Carley, rule! We each made four more dollars than the night before!

Well, not exactly. But sounds fun, no?

Thu., Aug. 6, 8 p.m., $5 donation, Space 1026, 1026 Arch St., 2nd floor, 215-574-7630, space1026.com.
