Molly Pope literally sings for her supper to stave off a financial sinkhole.
Sometimes almost all of your survival income for the month of September disappears in a single email. Which can be a very daunting moment for you. But then you remember you’re also an award-winning, self-anointing, self-medicating cabarettist and YOU GOT THIS. I got this. I’ll throw a rent party as as a cabaret show.

$15 Ticket + 2 Drink Minimum. Trying to keep it reasonable. If everbody shows up, we might actually cover my rent. What a way to stick it to the man. Advance purchase recommended! www.purplepass.com/rent
