The Glitterbox Presents: The New Olds Video Fest 2025 A showcase of recent short films made by local creators. It's "New" because the videos were made in 2024 and 2025. It's "Olds" because that's the nickname for our home (notice the iconic Oldsmobile logo on the facade of the Glitterbox? It's a relic from one of the building's former lives as a car dealership.) Put them together with a one-night-only celebration of our region's moviemaking talent, and you've got the New Olds Video Festival, now in its second year. Who will take home one of Pittsburgh's most coveted awards, the Glitty? There's only one way to find out! Come on, what else are you doing the weekend between Christmas and New Years? Come watch some of your friend's flicks! Submissions are open to any movie image makers in the Pittsburgh region. Film, video, and digital video submissions with durations from five seconds to ten minutes are accepted. Email theglitterboxtheater@gmail.com with questions or to submit. Submissions are due by Friday, December 12th. Doors at 7, Show at 7:30

Sad Boys in Harpy Land at Glitterbox Theater “A THRILLING & FRENETIC MENTAL BREAKDOWN OF A SHOW” (NYT) Equal parts anxious clown show, demented cabaret, and extended crisis of meaning, Sad Boys in Harpy Land collages narratives of art making and despair into an unhinged solo performance that takes place in the hellscape of the mind. After sold-out runs everywhere from Off-Broadway to multiple basements, self-proclaimed “experimental clown artist” Alex Tatarsky brings their (dubiously) hit show Sad Boys in Harpy Land to The Glitterbox! Embracing the spiral, the unfinished, and the broken bits, the piece attempts to move through the inaction born of anxiety, shame, and overwhelm towards strange & ecstatic modes of re-writing the world together. Created & Performed by Alex Tatarsky Live Music by Shane Riley Directed by Iris McCloughan Scenic, Costumes, Props Design by Andreea Mincic Lighting Design by Masha Tsimring Developed with Eva Steinmetz Called a “hilarious, finely tuned absurdist” (Theatre Jones) and “outrageous and profane” (NYT), Alex Tatarsky makes performances in the uncomfortable in-between zone of comedy, dance-theater, performance art, and deluded rant--sometimes with songs. Tatarsky experienced fleeting fame as Andy Kaufman’s daughter and used to perform as a mound of dirt. Playing with perceptions […]

Daniel Maseda: Clowning & Nonsense; an open-level workshop at the Glitterbox Theater Please sign up by emailing Daniel at danielfmaseda@gmail.com Workshop Cost: Sliding Scale ($45-$60) Pay at https://www.simpletix.com/e/daniel-maseda-clowning-nonsense-an-open-le-tickets-247318 Some clowns don’t speak. Some can’t help but run their mouths. In this experimental clown/improv workshop, we will explore absurd language as an avenue for discovery. Through clowning games and improvisational exercises that use invented words, dubbing, translation, babbling, and sound effects, we will explore what special kinds of fun can emerge when we turn our legibility down to level zero while keeping our dignity turned up to level 10. How fun can it be to make no sense? All are welcome! No clowning experience required. Participants will be given on-the-fly feedback throughout the workshop, while also being asked to work quickly and embrace moments of uncertainty—so the more ready you are to dive in, the more we can play, fail, and discover together as a group. Come mess around! INSTRUCTOR BIO Daniel Maseda (he/him) is a performer from Washington, DC who makes ridiculous work. He is currently touring his debut solo “BE GOOD!” WITH PAULETTE, which played at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe (★★★★, Pick of the Fringe) and was awarded […]
Daniel Maseda presents: "Be Good!" with Paulette at The Glitterbox Theater Philly Fringe Fest "Best Clown Show" Winner comes to the Glitterbox with a hot-off-the-fist black eye! HERE COMES THE MILDEST MAN IMAGINABLE. Paulette stumbles into a room full of the most strangers he's ever seen, and he doesn't know whether to panic or mingle—so he does both. Sporting a brown sweater and a hot-off-the-fist black eye, he dares to address the gathered crowd armed with nothing but an arsenal of pleasantries and a monumental fear of rejection. Hot off of high-octane runs in Edinburgh, DC, and Philly, certified clown Daniel Maseda brings well-mannered idiot Paulette to The Glitterbox with this fan-favorite show that never plays out the same way twice. A good night for anyone who wants to scream at a polite person.

Good Person: A Rage Show for your Clown at the Glitterbox Theater You are here because you are very good. Patricia! (The richest and whitest woman you know) is here and wants to celebrate you. Because you are so very good. And in this moment where goodness is harder to come by, Patrica will make sure you stay good, whether you like it or not. This provocative, raucous, solo bouffon show is for queers, good black girls, and anyone afraid of their own rage. Patricia! dares the audience to examine the intricate layers of being 'good' in a world teetering on the edge of chaos. With games, jokes, and existential dread, it's an audacious, unapologetic romp through society's contradictions and collective rage, leaving you pondering the true essence of being a 'good person.' Chaotic, and thought-provoking, "Good Person" holds a mirror audience's perceptions of what it means to be good and what it costs to stay that way.
