The Shimmy Shake Project has been invited to Gresso’s by the premiere improv comedy troupe in Columbus, Full Frontal Nudity.

We’ll be mixing it up with our homeboys from Fake Bacon that night. Show starts at 7:30pm and it’s free!
Gresso’s is located at 961 S High St in Columbus.

Back to our stomping ground at The Thirsty Ear Tavern. The best bar in Grandview (at least 4 out of 4 Shimmies agree) to perform our monthly Shimmy set. Who knows maybe we have a new game or new Shimmy up our sleeve. Of course, the Bacons will be there. If it wasn’t for them we wouldn’t be there. They’ll be there, we’ll be there and you better be there too! Show starts at 8:30pm and as always, it’s free!
The Thirsty Ear Tavern is located at 1200 West Third Avenue in Grandview.
