Is This Thing On?

A New Solo Show By Adam Bradley Coming To Philly Fringe. Yellow Bicycle Theater, Philadelphia Tuesday, Sep 8, 2026 - 8:45pm Wednesday, Sep 9, 2026 - 6:30pm Thursday, Sep 10, 2026 - 6:30pm Is This Thing On? is about the version of yourself you put down — and whether it’s ever too late to pick it back up. Blending storytelling, live music, and humor, the show traces the arc of a voice — from a boy in the Catskills discovering something real at the piano, to the exhilarating highs of Yale, to chasing music in New York and Los Angeles — and then gradually setting that voice aside in favor of a different life. Until grief cracks him open and he finds his way back to the thing that was always waiting. What emerges is deeply personal: a story about identity, responsibility, and the quiet cost of compromise.

Is This Thing On?

This hilarious, soulful, and deeply human, music woven solo show traces one man’s journey from Yale singing fame to Wall Street, fatherhood, grief, and creative rebirth. Performed by Adam Bradley, the show moves through a series of wildly entertaining and emotionally revealing chapters: a high school talent show that changes everything, the manic world of Yale singing celebrity, failed music dreams in New York and Los Angeles, accidental boy-band absurdity, the pressure cooker of corporate recruiting and hedge fund life, falling in love, raising twin boys, losing a mother, and ultimately rediscovering art after years of performance in every sense of the word. Through original songs, sharp comedy, and deeply personal storytelling, Bradley brings audiences into the tension between the lives we imagine for ourselves and the ones we ultimately build. One moment he’s dodging emotional collapse in a rusted-out Volvo in Los Angeles; the next he’s sprinting through Grand Central in a suit, trying not to be late for… Category: Theater / Concerts.

Is This Thing On?

This hilarious, soulful, and deeply human, music woven solo show traces one man’s journey from Yale singing fame to Wall Street, fatherhood, grief, and creative rebirth. Performed by Adam Bradley, the show moves through a series of wildly entertaining and emotionally revealing chapters: a high school talent show that changes everything, the manic world of Yale singing celebrity, failed music dreams in New York and Los Angeles, accidental boy-band absurdity, the pressure cooker of corporate recruiting and hedge fund life, falling in love, raising twin boys, losing a mother, and ultimately rediscovering art after years of performance in every sense of the word. Through original songs, sharp comedy, and deeply personal storytelling, Bradley brings audiences into the tension between the lives we imagine for ourselves and the ones we ultimately build. One moment he’s dodging emotional collapse in a rusted-out Volvo in Los Angeles; the next he’s sprinting through Grand Central in a suit, trying not to be late for… Category: Theater / Concerts.

A New Solo Show By Adam Bradley Coming To Philly Fringe. Yellow Bicycle Theater, Philadelphia Tuesday, Sep 8, 2026 - 8:45pm Wednesday, Sep 9, 2026 - 6:30pm Thursday, Sep 10, 2026 - 6:30pm Is This Thing On? is about the version of yourself you put down — and whether it’s ever too late to pick it back up. Blending storytelling, live music, and humor, the show traces the arc of a voice — from a boy in the Catskills discovering something real at the piano, to the exhilarating highs of Yale, to chasing music in New York and Los Angeles — and then gradually setting that voice aside in favor of a different life. Until grief cracks him open and he finds his way back to the thing that was always waiting. What emerges is deeply personal: a story about identity, responsibility, and the quiet cost of compromise.

R.F. Kuang

One of the most celebrated literary voices of her generation comes to Philadelphia. New York Times bestselling author R.F. Kuang — whose works include The Poppy War trilogy, Babel, and Yellowface — makes a special live appearance in honor of her most anticipated novel yet. With Taipei Story, Kuang ventures somewhere new: inward. The novel follows Lily, a young women suspended between cultures, who travels to Taiwan searching for the sense of belonging she's never quite found at home.

PRISM Quartet and Craig Taborn

The ever-adventurous PRISM Quartet joins forces with the composer/pianist and MacArthur Fellow Craig Taborn in a program featuring the world premiere of Taborn’s Three Animal Riddles. Taborn writes, “Three Animal Riddles is a work in three movements—Two Fish, Red Sulfur Birds, and Her Basilisk—in which improvisatory piano, in dialogue with a saxophone quartet, encounters metaphors of decomposition, transformation, and synthesis. Alchemical animal riddles, Duke Ellington, and Cecil Taylor inspired this piece, which will take on a new final form with each performance.” The program also includes work from PRISM Quartet’s ongoing Heritage/Evolution project by Greg Osby, Melissa Aldana, John Coltrane, and Chris Potter, adapted for PRISM’s saxes and piano.

Afterward, enjoy a wine and cheese reception.

With Liberty & Justice...for a Few : the Forgotten 1926 World's Fair

Learn how the Sesqui, the 1926 celebration of America’s 150th birthday in South Philly, became an unwitting battleground for many of the social struggles convulsing America in the 1920s. Wealthy and socially prominent women played a crucial role resulting in the Sesqui kickstarting the historic preservation movement. The Sesqui also saw the entry of Irish Catholics into the city’s power structure. Meanwhile Jews and Black people did not get the recognition they deserved for their contributions to Sesqui. At the same time, fair planners and city fathers prepared to welcome 100,000 Ku Klux Klan members for a public march and cross burning. Learn about all this and more in a lecture from Thomas H.

Adult One-Time Introductory Classes

Join our one time class to learn the basics of handbuilding! All participants must be at least 6 years old, and accompanied by an adult if they are younger than 10 years old. There is a $20.00 fee if you would like to keep what you throw. We will then finish and glaze your piece with a color of your choosing, and your piece will be ready for pick up 4 weeks after your class. We will notify you when your piece is finished, and we will hold your piece for 1 month after its completion before donating it.

Days of Awe

A year after her mother’s death, a poet in recovery moves home to Philadelphia with a suitcase, a divorce, and a lifetime of inherited stories. Set during the ten days from Rosh Hashanah to Yom Kippur, Days of Awe blends poetry, storytelling, and chutzpah into a lyrical reckoning with grief, desire, and the inheritances we carry. From sleepless West Philly stoops to the ghost-lit borderlands of the Pale of Settlement, this solo show traverses geographies and generations, tracing a lineage of Jewish women through silence, survival, and return. Told with equal parts reverence and irreverence, Days of Awe draws on family history and Jewish ritual to ask how we can carry loss while allowing ourselves to fall back in love with the world. Days of Awe is presented as part of the Philadelphia Fringe Festival and Cannonball. Category: Theater / Concerts. Cost: $25 (pay-what-you-can options available.

SASHA VELOUR- TRAVESTY

Internationally beloved drag icon Sasha Velour is returning to Philadelphia with her new theatre show, Travesty. Travesty traces the secret queer history of a single spot throughout time—a witch burns in a field; a clown builds a theater; an underground gay bar rises up against the police. As Velour embodies different characters through a series of jaw-dropping lip-syncs, she invites you to take part in the cycle of existence, resistance, and camp that IS drag. Part performance art, part history, part call to action, Travesty will have you screaming at the top of your lungs, dancing in the aisles, and inspired to "change the muthaf*ckin' world!" Velour is known for her unique fusion of lip sync performance, video art, and storytelling. She is the winner of Season 9 of RuPaul's Drag Race (2017), the founder and host of New York City's legendary drag revue NightGowns (since 2015) and has toured two celebrated one-queen theater shows around the world—Smoke & Mirrors (2019-2022), and The Big Reveal (2023-2025… Contact Phone: 215-893-1999.
