An Alexis Howland Project

Comedy & Improv, Theater

Connect

A clowny comedy of errors inspired by a true 19th-century wilderness expedition into the interior of Alaska - impertinent mules, relentless mosquitoes, sabotage, and mutiny!


This new ensemble show in early development is a work-in-progress showing of phase one ideas.


Development of this project is supported through Cannonball 2025’s Philadelphia Theatre Company Text and Dramaturgy Cohort.

With over 100 offerings from rebellious circus, delicious dance, fearless theatre and activist art to workshops, parties, and more Cannonball pushes the boundaries of live performance at four different venues this Fringe. Come as you are and stay past bedtime at cannonballfestival.org.

About the Artist

Alexis Howland is a Philly-based theater artist creating big-energy, devised, ensemble-based shows. She challenges audiences to laugh hesitantly and then uproariously at sacrosanct moments. Her work explores the dark absurdity of society and shows the audience they actually love all the messed up stuff in our world. She is a graduate of Pig Iron and is good at spreadsheets.
