Overview

When a celebrity shares a death anniversary with your dad, is it simply coincidence? Or something far more complex? A Pirate Looks at 30 is an exploration of grief, cheeseburgers, and the stories we could tell. An unraveling of truths and fictions passed down through families and songs, that work to mythologize even the most ordinary sailors. To put it simply: this is a show for anyone who is a fan of Jimmy Buffett, or my dad.

Note: the 9/22 performance of this show has been canceled.

With over 100 offerings from rebellious circus, delicious dance, fearless theater and activist art to workshops, parties, and more Cannonball pushes the boundaries of live performance at four different venues this Fringe.
