The Cody Rivers Show

What:

The Cody Rivers Show: Right Back Where We Finished

The Cody Rivers Show creates kinetic and unpredictable comedy theatre that has amazed audiences and defied description for the past five years.

 The Arcata Playhouse will once again host this over-the-top comedy act on Saturday, April 3rd as they continue their national tour. Pushing the envelopes of physical theatre, dance, music, and high concept comedy, The Cody Rivers Show delivers unique shows unlike any other comedy act, past or present. Their latest new piece – ‘Right Back Where We Finished’ – sprints between precocious youths, game theory, pioneer-era linguistics, ants and prairie dogs, the confessions of an unruly teen, eccentric old men, baby jockeys, pingpong, and oh so much more. It’s like running a marathon, doing algebra, and eating cake at the same time.

 For tickets or more information call 707.822.1575 or visit www.arcataplayhouse.org. Reservations are advised.
