A wonderful week! Riddles! Dave Foley! Paula Poundstone! Plays! Livestreams!

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*

View this email in your browser Hey sweet Darlings,  Our hearts and prayers are with you, hoping no one got you toooo badly on the day of wickedness and dark magic that is April Fools day. We survived mostly unscathed, as we have a very strict NO TRICKS policy around the theater, but we know not everyone can be so lucky. Just the tangential fooling energy effected us, so we can’t imagine how it would be to live with a person who puts soap on your toothbrush and cling wrap on a toilet. April Fools day: It’s NOT ok.   On April Fools Eve (whilst the Devil was preparing his tote of trickery) we had the ABSOLUTE PLEASURE of watching JENNY SLATE put on one of our favorite shows ever. Humanity, absurdity, warmth, sensitivity, and also some really gross yucky stuff. A perfect cocktail.  Unfortunately she had to cancel last night’s show, but we’re hard at work trying to reschedule it. If you have an opportunity to see her anywhere, take it. Saturday’s Dynasty Tonight! was yet another dreamy one, the band keeps getting better and better (we’ve added some horns! Game changer!) and VanJam made a pact to work on some choreography before the next show. So in a month we’ll be professional dancers just fyi. Capezio outlet store, watch out! We need some sheer dance skirts and lyrical shoes STAT.  Maybe we’ll become professional dancers and have to move to New York City because that’s where the REAL dance scene is. We’ll keep you posted on that, but in the meantime let our challenge encourage yourself to learn something new! You’re never too old to embarrass and delight yourself. I mean, we’re never too old because we’re actually very, very young (so we’re just sort of using that as a general phrase) but it applies to most people directly.  🕺 Now let’s shuffle off to Buffalo (it’s a dance thang) with what’s on our proverbial dance card this week:  TONIGHT! MONDAY, 7:30PM: No But I'm Definitely in a Better Place Than I've Been in a Long Time The amazing MICHAEL J. FELDMAN is taking the stage again for his acclaimed and insane piece in which a raging narcissist attempts to put up a one man show about his dog as the world is ending. We love this show, and we know you will too. Directed by TOM DETRINIS this is a production that is high energy, very high laugh-to-moment ratio (according to our team of analysts and statisticians)  and hiiiiighly recommended.  🧪  TUESDAY, 7:30PM: The Funny or Die Lab is a comedy variety show featuring talent that FUNNY OR DIE is very excited about, and we are too because FOD has great taste. This week’s folks include:  Hosted by JESSE KENDALL & VINNY THOMAS Characters by: YONI LOTAN, STEVE HAN, AND BIANCA SIA Stand Up by: JARED GOLDSTEIN, SYDNEE WASHINGTON, HAYDEN JOHNSON Music by: LUKE NULL   WEDNESDAY, 7:30PM: Self Help Me w/ JENNY YANG: a Competitive Self Care Comedy Show it’s a competitive self-care comedy show and it’s SOLD OUT.     THURSDAY, 7:30PM: Lovett or Leave it! You know we love it and we have a hunch you do too. Every Thursday at Dynasty JON LOVETT and his funniest friends chat/rant/rave/laugh their way through the week’s happenings. This week’s crew includes: ZACH ZIMMERMAN, ADAM CONOVER, PAULA POUNDSTONE and ANDREA JIN.   🧐 FRIDAY, 7:30PM: Hey Riddle Riddle LIVESTREAM AVAIL! In person SOLD OUT. Riddles! Puzzles! WhoDunnits! ADAL RIFAI, ERIN KEIF and JOHN PATRICK COAN, three of Chicago’s most overrated improvisers, are on the case to solve every riddle, puzzle, brain-teaser, and head-scratcher known to humanity. Some riddles are almost impossible, some are absolutely improbable, and some simply have not aged well. And if you don’t like riddles, don’t worry! This podcast is barely about them!   🦧 ‍⚕️ SATURDAY, 7:30PM: Hanging With DOCTOR Z The internet’s beloved Hanging With Doctor Z is now coming to you LIVE. Join show biz legend and talk show giant DR. Z as he recounts his fabulous career in a name-dropping chat fest with DAVE FOLEY, JANET VARNEY, and MINDY STERLING. Musical guests: RICHARD CHEESE & LOUNGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. And as always, he’ll be joined by RUSTY STEELE and THE STEELE WHEELS. SUNDAY, 7:30PM: PAT REGAN is BACK and he’s… still wonderful! 🤷‍♂️ Maybe you know him from his amazing podcast, “SEEK TREATMENT.” Maybe you love him because he’s been writing for HACKS (on his 3rd season!), maybe you love him because you have great taste. All of these are good reasons. MONDAY April 10th, 7:30PM: Messy White Gays is a new play by a classic darling, the fabulous DREW DROEGE. We’re SO excited for this reading! Apparently so was everyone because this is SOLD OUT.  Jamie’s pregnant* with dogs,  VanJam *a SAFE April fools joke.

View this email in your browser Darlings,  Happy this week! Hopefully you are happy and fulfilled and zingy and springy, DESPITE THE FLARPIN’ BOOL SHUP (bullshit) of this weather! No one wants to hear anyone complain about the weather, much less READ someone complaining about the weather so we’ll stop. But just know we’re glaring at the sky, waving our rent checks, screaming, “surely there’s been some mistake.”  Ok, this is A GOOD 5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY WEEK AT DYNASTY. Like f’real. Whether they know it or not (don't worry, most of them know.), all this week's shows are part of our week long Quinquennial Celebration! Not only are we blessed with a bounty of dreamy programming, we have also soft-opened The Dynasty Souvenir Shoppe in the theater! It is known as The Dynasty Wylds Souvenir Emporium & Fashion Galleria! We put up fancy wallpaper, vintage furniture, rat bones... you know, THE WHOLE 9 YARDS! Like the movie! And guess what? We got NEW HOT SHIRTZ! These *LIMITED EDITION* QUINQUENNIAL shirts that celebrate our first five years are a beautiful, sleek, addition to any wardrobe! Dress it up with heels and ethical diamonds! Dress it down with shit-covered sneakers! These babies were printed right here in LA, and the gorgeous illustration has many little Dynasty (nondenominational) easter eggs within.  Now, for this week’s programming:  TONIGHT! MONDAY 7:30PM! REGGIE WATTS will be joining us for Inflatable Planet! THERE ARE BALLOONS EVERYWHERE AND IT LOOKS SO EFF GOOD. It’s a show, it’s a book release, it’s got MUSIC it’s got a balloon fashion show! It’s got  live balloon twisting. It’s a “rolling investigation into the nature of joy and laughter.” Honestly… if that line of description ain’t ticklin’ ya, this may not be the newsletter for you.   TOMORROW!  TUESDAY 7:30 PM: Netflix is a Joke presents: Are You Still Listening? Everyone’s favorite streaming underdog, NETFLIX has taken it upon themselves to GIVE the people comedy.

Actress MISSI PYLE (Galaxy Quest, Dodgeball, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and MORE!) and drag queen PISSI MYLES, when faced with JUST THIS QUESTION, realized that their only options were to do a high dive off of a high bridge, or brush off their knees, pull the gum out of their hair, and save the world themselves with comedy, music, and audience play.

View this email in your browser Darlings, Who’s still weeeeeeping form Everything Everywhere All At Once’s genuine spirit of humility, absurdity, kindness and play?! We are! We had a very fun night at Dynasty watching the Oscars on the big screen with a whole bunch of our dolled-up darlings! DAVE HOLMES (our hero, our love) was the host with the most, and several of our audience gave awards acceptance speeches throughout the night, and we ate a lot of pizza and popcorn because we’re nothing if we’re not predictable. And now, here we are looking to finish off March with chutzpah and pizazz because baby, we’re FIVE’N THRIVIN’. (We’re celebrating our Quinquennial this month!) Oh also just FYI, OZZY OSBOURNE came to the theater to watch his amazing daughter KELLY in this month's The Last Improv Show. And last week GENE SIMMONS was in the audience. So, politely exqueeze us as we dump the HOT, electric anthemic cream out of our ripped up arena sized leather pants. Life is rock. Rock is life.

Inner Circle Puzzlers, PLEASE remember to bring a shareable salad, your favorite incense, and to wear the velveteen shawls we had delivered to your homes last week. If you don’t wear the shawls, it shows disrespect to your fellow puzzlers and also is a waste of your membership dues. Also, Leeza worked really hard on them. Those who voted AGAINST the shawls, PLEASE STILL WEAR THE SHAWLS. Next quarter we’ll get jerseys, ok? And we’ll make sure the shawl-voters wear the jerseys.
