About this event

Join us for our wild “Rainbow Riot” Pride Extravaganza at The Ruckus Revival! Ruckus is the biggest renegade variety show in the Bay Area, and the Huffington Post calls us "one of the best underground performance art shows in America!"

In June we go all out with our LGTBQ+ pride celebration, getting down and dirty with an astounding showcase of the best of the Bay’s incredible queer performance scene! Prepare for an irreverent night of gay surprises and to leave your inhibitions at the door!

The Ruckus Revival is a legendary underground showcase filled with uncensored circus, raucous stand-up comedy, scorching burlesque, stunning pole performance, freestyle rap and hip hop, aerial performances, beat-boxing, slam poetry, jaw-dropping sideshow, dirty haiku bouts and audience-interactive mayhem in a fast paced night of unfiltered entertainment!

The winner of multiple "Best of the Bay" awards, and called "consistently the most spectacular event that Oakland's ever seen" by the East Bay Express, the SF Chronicle calls Ruckus "a dazzling, inspiring and celebratory display of talent" and "a tent revival for misfits and freaks, those whose artistry or spectatorship has a homespun bent and a bandit streak."

Hosted by Wonder Dave (Mental Health Comedy Hour) and Jamie DeWolf (HBO’s Def Poetry Jam and NPR's Snap Judgment, with DizzyfromEarlier, Little Glitter Bomb and the beat-boxer Syzygy.
