Heathcliff & You & Wanda: An Evening of Song(s)
Live Cabaret at the Trustus Side Door Theatre
June 15 @ 11:15 PM (Special Late Night Performance!)
June 16 @ 3 PM
June 16 @ 8 PM

All talk. No clue. Jonathan Monk as Heathcliff the Clown, a 78-year-old song and
dance man from the golden age of entertainers. Join Heathcliff and his
accompanist Wanda for an evening of tunes, tap dancing, danger, Diane Keaton
jokes, shadow puppetry and hostile janitorial services.
Some critics have described Heathcliff’s performances as “reminiscent of Red
Skelton and Andy Kaufman, but with slightly less talent” – and some have
wondered if he does birthday parties. He doesn’t, but Wanda is available to play
most events before 8 PM.

One hour of entertainment plus a live Q + A with Heathcliff and Wanda.
This show is for ages 13 & up.
Tickets $10 student / $15 adult
Tickets may be reserved by calling our Box Office (803) 254-9732 or by emailing [email protected]. Seating is General Admission.
