The ‘Sad Clown with the Golden Voice’ is here with his heartfelt anthems and a suitcase full of Kleenex! This Pity Party is not all sadness and longing. The show is peppered with a brilliant sense of the absurd, mixing lots of humor with other awkward, tender moments.
Puddles Pity Party will perform on Friday, November 9, at the Performing Arts Center at Rockwell Hall. The show is all ages and begins at 8:00 p.m. with doors opening at 7:00 p.m.
Tickets are $35, $45, and $100 (for a Premium Pity Party Pass that includes early admission, pre-show 'Puddles Cuddles' with Coffee 'n Croonin' and an exclusive VIP3er souvenir). Pre-sale tickets are available online now. General tickets go on sale Friday, August 10, at 10:00 a.m. and are available online, by phone at (716) 878-3005, or in person at the Performing Arts Center Box Office (after August 20). All price levels will increase by $5 on the day of the show.
