About This Event

Brian Dryer’s The Psych Ward and Other Misadventures is a raw, hilarious, and deeply human solo show that dives headfirst into the chaos of mental health, and self-discovery. Through a series of misdiagnoses, two unforgettable stints in the psych ward, an unexpected journey to Guatemala, and a whole lot of questionable choices, Dryer delivers a powerhouse performance that’s as moving as it is sidesplitting.


With fearless honesty and sharp comedic timing, he invites the audience to laugh, cry, and cringe alongside him in a whirlwind of vulnerability and absurdity.


Featured in Best of the Week at Frontera Fest and performed live at the Fallout Theater, this one-man odyssey is a testament to resilience, recklessness, and the healing power of humor.


The Psych Ward and Other Misadventures will take you on a ride you didn’t even know you wanted to be on, but will be glad you did.
