Tickets coming soon.

Join us for The Ballad of Madelyne & Therese, singer-songwriter Rachel Garlin’s newest piece for the stage. Part concert, part one-person play, The Ballad features original songs and intimate storytelling as Garlin explores what happens when queer desire collides with 1940s conventions in the lives of characters Madelyne and Therese. With recent showings in NYC, Colorado, and San Francisco, Garlin’s new work is coming back to the Bay Area for one night only.

Musicians performing 'The Ballad' live at Lethe Lounge in New York City, including Rachel Garlin singing and playing guitar, a man playing a double bass, and other band members playing instruments while audience listens.
