Celebrate the 12th Anniversary of The Lost Church with us on SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11th at TLC San Francisco

dance party!

Did you hear?! The Lost Church is 12 YEARS OLD!

We had our very first show in Brett and Elizabeth’s home turned performance parlor and theater on February 11th, 2011.

Since then we’ve become an Arts Nonproft, opened a 2nd theater in Santa Rosa, moved the SF location to North Beach, began co-producing Railroad Square Music Festival and have grown into a venerable force for fun, connection, magic, and an array of performances both intimate and mighty.

On this exact to the day 12th Anniversary of The Lost Church our Co-Founders Brett and Elizabeth Cline along with TLC family members Roger Rocha, Ari Gorman, Erma Kyriakos, and Seth Lael are taking away the chairs and presenting CHURCH OF BOOGIE with Edge City Fever and Space Banquet  where we all can fill up on vintage vibes and GET DOWN! Get TIX and party with us.

Thursday, February 2nd | Doors at 7:30 Show 8:15-10:30pm – COMEDY

StandProv! (stand-up meets improv on 1st Thursdays)

TICKETS

Equal parts standup and improvisational comedy, StandProv electrifies audiences who enjoy a laugh every 1st Thursday of the month. Standup comedian and host of StandProv, Franco Tevini performs digestible bits of surreal, elevated slice-of-life comedy with Jeremy Lessnau and this month’s featured guests: Josh Argyle (Punchline San Francisco), Corde Snell (Cobb’s Comedy Club SF), Eerie Diamond (Punchline San Francisco)

Friday, February 3rd | Doors at 7:30 Show 8:15-10:30pm  INDIE-FOLK

Songs & Stories w/ King Dream (solo) and Trevor Bahnson

TICKETS

With a soulful voice, roots planted in the golden era of California psychedelia and a wry energy that places him firmly in the 21st century, Jeremy Lyon of King Dream charts a path through timeless themes: disillusionment with oneself, with adulthood, with one’s country — and the discovery, time and again, that somehow there’s still plenty worthy of a love song. Trevor Bahnson makes music that sounds a bit like the desert where he was born: plaintive, powerful, with hints of mischief and mystery; it’s meant to reverberate across wild, open spaces.

Sunday, February 5th | Doors at 7:30pm Show 8:15-10:30pm – FOLK/SINGER-SONGWRITER

Kyra Gordon and Megan Alder (Portland)

TICKETS

Kyra Gordon has belted out Janis Joplin hits in a one-woman show, earned a conservatory degree interpreting jazz standards, and spent several years in the improvisational hip-hop group The Freeze, but it was the long road she traveled winding from Hollywood to New Orleans to a rural North Carolina commune to Paris that fueled her remarkable debut album Soul of a Showgirl. Her music flows from the vicissitudes of her footloose life, glinting with insights she’s gleaned along the way. Megan Alder is a vocal powerhouse performing upbeat swing and Americana music with raw grit and soul.

Ticket Sales Alone Don't Keep Theaters Open...Donors Do

From Your Everlovin’ Editor

Hiya!

Last week our two theaters were filled with searing music, dancing DIVAS, erotically charged literature, sweet traditional Filipina harmonies, and another fun month of Live Band Karaoke.

Can the week ahead top THAT?!

Maybe not top, but it’s sure to keep the goodness flowing with the quick witted and always hilarious StandProv!, the chance to get your brain spanked by magician and mentalist Brad Barton, wild stories and good grooves from touring and local songwriters, and poignant and warm songs of love with SongRise Studios and Jasmine Pritchard.

Love,

Michele & The Lost Church
