3:00 PM
Flower Piano in the Redwood Grove
SF Botanical Gardens 

Marisa and regular collaborator Martin Strauss return to the Redwood Grove (our favorite venue in the garden) yes, on a weekday, to regale you with our quirky brand of high-end music and low-brow humor. The Redwood Grove is a stunning setting and there may even be parking, given this isn’t on a weekend proper. No promises, so plan to arrive at 2:15 because the Redwood Grove is about a 15-minute walk from the gate.

Wednesday, 30 September – Saturday, 3 October

Wasteland Weekend

Marisa will open the chaos of Death Guild Thunderdome with an aria each evening… sometimes on trapeze.

Third Wall Music Exact date and location TBD

Third Wall Music presents Witches, B*tches, and Ghosts

A favorite pandemic theme, this Third Wall Music will feature stories about the traditions that led to some of the spooky themes we find in music… We have room for speakers and are always looking for different homes to host Third Walls, so if either of those things appeal to you, email us! Schedule and location TBD by our performing speakers and hosts.
