COURTESY OF WELCOME TO NIGHT VALE

Welcome to Night Vale is a community radio podcast with a twist.


The popular podcast Welcome to Night Vale comes to the Fox as a live stage show.

Night Vale is a quiet little town, just a happy little community full of normal folks. It has a perfectly normal lending library, with 33 copies of Helen Hunt’s biography and no entrance. It has a perfectly normal Dog Park that doesn’t permit entry to humans—or to dogs, for that matter. And it has a perfectly normal certified bloodstone factory that makes perfectly normal certified bloodstones for use in all your perfectly normal arcane rituals. OK, maybe this town isn’t so normal after all. Night Vale is the subject of Welcome to Night Vale, the popular comic-horror podcast detailing life in a strange, sleepy, surreal desert town where conspiracy theories, urban legends, and creepy pasta are real, and it’s now a live stage show. Meet all your favorite Night Vale residents, like the Shape in Grove Park that Nobody Ever Acknowledges and the Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives in Your House. She’s there right now. Don’t turn around. July 16, 8 p.m. $27-$32.
