Nevermore! A Poe Comedy Show

October 19 2025

7:00 p.m

The Push Comedy Theater 763 Granby Street Norfolk, VA 23510 Price: $6

A Comedy Tribute to Edgar Allan Poe!

This Halloween season, the master of the macabre gets a comedy makeover. Join us for one night only as we take a lantern-lit dive into Edgar Allan Poe’s world of mystery, madness, and melodrama… only this time, it’s funny on purpose.

Parodies, homages, and brand-new absurdities rise from the crypt in a lineup of sketch and improv comedy. You’ll see Poe’s gothic favorites reimagined, hilarious games pulled straight from his stories, and even a tale conjured live on stage that Poe himself never got around to writing.

Dress code? Optional. But if you’ve ever wanted an excuse to don your gothic best, this is the night. Come cloaked, corseted, or just cozy – whatever gets you into the spirit.

Spend your Sunday with us for a night of Poe, parody, and pure comedy. One performance only. Nevermore.

Get Transported to the World of Dungeons and Dragons… Push Comedy Style! Pushing Dragons mixes improv comedy, cosplay, and D&D for an outrageous night of fun and adventure.

The Push Comedy Theater is playing Dungeons and Dragons. And you’re invited to play along. This is a live show where we take everything great about improv comedy and everything great about D&D and merge them together.

Members of the Push Comedy Theater will go on an improvised adventure, using stripped-down D&D rules (5th edition). With a giant, 20-sided die… you the audience will help determine the outcome.

Unlike other live plays, we don’t sit around the table. Our game is performed on a stage with the players and monsters often venturing into the audience. It is an exciting and energetic experience.

Pushing Dragons is one of the hottest shows at the Push. Tickets are $15 in advance.

Whether you’re a die-hard D&D fan or you just know about it from Stranger Things, this show will have something for everyone.

A Murder Mystery in Norfolk like no other!

Everyone in the room is a suspect in this wild murder mystery in Norfolk… EVEN YOU! The Unusual Suspects is a completely made-up murder mystery. Detective Brad McMurran walks you through the suspects… all pulled from the audience. No matter what twists the suspects throw at our great detective, he’s following the fun right to the very end. Watch in amazement as Brad pieces the puzzle back together, and leaves everyone doubled over with laughter. The show is completely improvised, so who knows what will happen next?

Each month, Brad plays a different detective inspired by the great sleuths of fiction. If you love mysteries, whodunnits, and good plot loop-hole, The Unusual Suspects is for you. Can you solve the murder before our crack investigator?

The Unusual Suspects is the brainchild of Brad McMurran (co-writer of Cuff Me: The 50 Shades of Grey Musical Parody, and co-owner of The Push Comedy Theater). The show regularly sells out at the Push Comedy Theater. It has been performed at parties, festivals, and corporate events. It was performed monthly at the South Point Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

Enter a Brand New Realm of Adventure, Laughter, and Epic Chaos!

Tales of the Pushing Dragon features brand new player characters, brand new monsters, special guest Dungeon Masters… same Pushing Dragons fun!!! Tales of the Pushing Dragon with guest Dungeon Master George Nelson is a special one-shot featuring students from the Pushing Dragons Workshop.

Pushing Dragons isn’t your typical game night—it’s a full-blown stage spectacle where improv comedy collides with Dungeons & Dragons. Armed with stripped-down 5th Edition rules, the heroes of Push Comedy Theater dive headfirst into a one-of-a-kind quest, guided by chance, wit, and the mighty roll of a giant 20-sided die.

But this isn’t a tabletop session—you’ll see battles, spells, and shenanigans come to life right on stage (and sometimes in the audience). Best of all, you help shape the story, rolling dice that decide the fate of our adventurers—and maybe even joining them in the quest.

Whether you’re a seasoned dungeon crawler or have never touched a character sheet, this show is for you.

And don’t just watch—come in your best cosplay and become part of the fantasy world. Wizards, rogues, barbarians, or bards… all are welcome on this epic, unpredictable journey.
