Stompin’ Ground Games in Capitol Hill: Comedy!
February 26, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
The Stompin’ Ground Games, a monthly series brought to you by Warm Cookie of the Revolution, comes to central Denver’s neighborhoods of Uptown, Capitol Hill, Congress Park, Cheesman, and West Colfax!
There are layers and layers of deep history on Capitol Hill. Since World War II, this part of Denver has been home to a diverse array of political and cultural movements that grew into national prominence: from the Beats in the 50s, shacking up in hotels off of Logan to queer activists in the 60s and 70s, gathering in apartments to organize, to 2015, as immigrants and the faith community made a public stand over the U.S. government’s deportation policies.
They’ve challenged local comedy legends Timmi Lasley, Jordan Dahl, Nathan Lund, and Janae Burris to shed light on these crucial issues while still (hopefully) making you pee your pants.
There will be delicious cookies, Voodoo Donuts, Sexy Pizza, and a slew of groups present who have been working on homelessness, immigration rights, queer history, and housing alternatives, as well as local history, weird games, and ways you can get involved!
A donation of $5 is requested, but no one will be turned away due to lack of funds.
