Sero-Tone It Down: a 50 minute sketch revue with the goal of shedding light in some of the darkest areas of the human condition. We aim to highlight Mental Health Awareness month with a show run in May 2025 that explores the stigmas, day to day lives, struggles, and topics in general surrounding mental illness. With each performer looking to bring their unique voice to the stage and highlight Mental Health, Mental Illness&#8217; they may encounter/deal with on a daily basis, we hope to create comedic conversation on topics otherwise ignored or altogether avoided. Additionally, we aim to outline and donate the ticket proceeds to Brave Space Alliance to give back where it matters the most.
