CHRIS AND GAVIN’S CAMPAIGN FOR BROADWAY SPECTACULAR
PERFORMED BY CHRISTOPHER SLOAN AND GAVIN ESHAM
How do two, down on their luck, former musical theater stars revive their careers? By going to the people with a campaign to get themselves elected to Broadway! Through sketches and songs, Chris & Gavin will turn Broadway on it’s ear by tackling tough subjects like:
-The casting couch: Is it as comfortable as it could be?
-Former FBI Director, James Comey, WHERE ARE ANNIE’S PARENTS?!
Come see why these two have been called The Oprah and Gayle of Broadway without the lesbian undertones So vote Chris & Gavin. Because if this recent presidential election taught us anything, it’s that you don’t have to be someone to do something!

YUM
Written & Performed by Michael Burgos
After sold-out runs at the 1st Annual and 2nd Annual Scranton Fringe Festival, Fringe favorite Michael Burgos returns to beloved Scranton for another ridiculous, absurd, and irreverent hour. “A brand new show?!” “Yes!” “What’s it all about?!” “Who knows?! Who cares?!” Low expectations and high idiocy make for a delicious evening… Yum.
