This April, the Encyclopedia Show AZ will take a journey through time and space to explore the mysteries of Mesopotamia.

Railroads – February 27

Railroads Poster

The Encyclopedia Show AZ is turning 4 on Monday February 27. If the Encyclopedia Show AZ was a human, it would be stumbling around, annoyingly asking everyone “Why?” all the time. Turns out, thats exactly what we do anyway but with a stage, an audience, and a concept. This month, our topic is Railroads! As always the show is free and will feature a variety of semi-educational performances from the community’s poets, performers, musicians, etc. This train is pulling out of the station promptly(ish) at 7:30pm. Heres to four more years of Encyclopedia Show AZ! Everybody with me now: FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!

Kevin Flanagan is a writer, performer, and artist living in Phoenix, Arizona.

When Kevin was three years old, he pushed a sheet metal screw up his nose. It was there for some time before being discovered, and required a trip to the emergency room to remove.

This is Kevin’s earliest memory.

Saints – November 17

ESA Saints

There are patron saints for everything. There is one for hangovers. There is one for television writers. There is even a patron saint of the Internet. Think about that for a second. Then think about it some more. Then come to our weird little semi-educational multi-genre show on October 30 at the Empty Space theater. This month our topic is Saints and we are going to explore the canon like only the Encyclopedia Show can. The show starts at 7pm and admission is free. Be there and bring a good beatitude!
