Tig Notaro is paying it forward by organizing the very first annual Krullapalooza benefit show. Krullapalooza 2014 is a comedy charity event in memory of Suzanne Krull who passed away unexpectedly in 2013 of a ruptured aortic aneurysm. Suzanne was deeply caring individual, and Krullapalooza is carrying on her legacy by raising funds for marginalized organizations/groups. Organizers have selected Survivors’ Truths as the event beneficiary this year. Their TransYouth Speak project in particular will be the focus of this benefit. This project helps transgender youth advocate for greater safety and inclusion in our communities.
As far as the comedy goes there is an impressive lineup which is well worth seeing. The participants include Tig, Zach Galifianakis, Reggie Watts, Patton Oswalt and Ian Harvie. I’d snag my tickets quick if I were you. Krullapalooza happens April 1st at 8pm (Yes, I know, April Fools Day) at The Wiltern. This event is gonna be off the charts fantastic.
Mentions: I’m not gonna tell you who to buy your tickets from but Survivor’s Truths is offering Specials & Discounts. I also hear that the box office at the Wiltern opens Saturday from 10am-2pm and you can purchase tix for your favorite show with no service fees!
