After a 5-star Edinburgh Fringe Festival debut and a sold out NYC extended run, writer and performer Caroline Dunn is bringing her one-woman-show PRUDENCE PLAY to Philly for only 3 shows!
Prudence Play (or Sister Prudence is Not Gay!) stars a young catholic nun having an identity (gay-as-hell) crisis. From her fever dream of tap dancing, or her hot and heavy thoughts during the Lenten fish fry, you understand…she’s having a moment. She’s waking up to feelings for a fellow sister, wrestling with her every belief, and confessing a lot (perhaps too much) to the order’s new priest. As memories from her past resurface and her dreams get more sinful, Prudence begins to question the voice in her head and is forced to confront her (horny) (gay) demons.
Prudence takes us on a beautifully human and hilarious journey into the mind of a young nun trapped by her own choices. Through humor and her surprising candor, the show explores queerness and lesbian identity, modern-day conservative catholicism, as well as the mental re-wiring it takes to free oneself of shame. As Prudence hits her breaking point, she welcomes the audience in with open arms, hilariously rambling freak-outs, and repressed memories. Just as she starts to question her reality, so will you. Plus, what would a repressed gay nun play be without a tap dancing dream sequence?
“…tender, funny, a warm embrace of queerness and imperfect self acceptance”
– Stephen Kearly, Hi! Drama (NYC Premiere 2026)
“With good humour, Caroline Dunn’s powerful, haunting script throws a spotlight on the mental conflict conservative religious teachings impose on gay people.”
★★★★★
-Counter Culture UK (World Premiere, Ed Fringe 2026)
“Dunn infuses Prudence with remarkable warmth and humanity…What begins as broad comedy deepens into something more profound. The play grows darker, more contemplative, as Prudence confronts the voices in her head.”
★★★★
The Nerd Party (World Premiere, Ed Fringe 2026)
“Iconic…funny…a tender exploration of a blossoming queer identity…an inspiring work…”
★★★★

The Dan May Band at the Fallser
2026-05-02 20:00 - 22:30 | The Fallser Club, 3721 Midvale Avenue, Philadelphia, PA, 19129, United States
The Dan May Band
Dan May is one of a rare breed of singer-songwriters that has made the successful transition from
classical to popular music. After a 12-year career that saw him singing roles with opera
companies across the US and Canada, he began writing and performing his own songs in 2005,
which has resulted in seven critically-acclaimed albums, including “Dying Breed,” which made
the The Philadelphia Inquirer’s list of “Top Ten Albums of the Year.”
May’s music has appeared on radio, in television and film, as well as orchestral performances
and his warm baritone and folk-pop songs with their rootsy embellishments that “brim with
hooks and heart as well as intelligence and grace” have been embraced by live audiences from
coast to coast.
Referred to as a “consummate storyteller, May has also authored two books, including
“Adventures in Grocery Shopping,” which was named to the Philadelphia Inquirer list of “Best
Books of 2016.” Dan’s live shows now include readings from both books in addition to singing
songs off of his seven albums. The readings have become a fan favorite and a staple of his live
performances.

PJ Brown and Caroline in the Garden at the Fallser

PJ Brown and Her Resistance with Caroline in the Garden
PJ Brown and Her Resistance
Like a band of misfits heeding the clarion call of Philadelphia’s most revered musical ghosts, PJ Brown and Her Resistance assembled for the first time (feat. members of WPJO and the legendary Martha Graham Cracker) for a sold-out show at World Café Live! What started as a full-steam homage to Miss Sharon Jones took a left turn when the wheels fell off and the ship lifted high above Love Park , clipping the hat off that bird-dropping-covered statue of William Penn and straight into the sun.
PJ Brown and Her Resistance continues its mission to spread love and music – To celebrate lost souls, excited shapeshifters, perennial drifters, aspiring troublemakers. and unapologetic agents of change.
It’s troubled soul music, taped-together rock and roll, basement party funk—it’s dark as night and light as day—and all of it is for you!

Caroline in the Garden
Caroline in the Garden is the imaginative pop project of singer-songwriter/producer Caroline Milby. Known for warm minor chord energy, off-kilter piano hooks and lush orchestrations, Caroline explores what it means to unhinge yourself from societies’ expectations after spending decades on the capitalist conveyor belt.
Heavily influenced by Kate Bush and 90s Lilith Fair icons, Caroline got her start in the Philadelphia art rock scene opening for acts such as Electric Six, Here Come the Mummies and Low Cut Connie.
Her debut album, Act Two, (coming April 10, 2026) was inspired by her wayward career jump from full-time attorney to full-time musician. Try explaining that to your parents. The album blends intimate storytelling and clever lyricism to explore the depths of an inner world that refuses to cooperate with societies’ expectations.
It has been described as “intensively forward thinking” and “uniquely resonant.”
