The biggest renegade variety show in the Bay Area is back next week with a rip roaring ride into Hallows Eve!

Join us for our notorious Spooktacular Halloween show: vampiric pole dancers, killer clowns, occultic aerialists, gothic stand up comedians, zombie stripshows, haunted hip hop, and many more wild tricks and treats!

Step into a wild and raucous night at The Continental Club in Oakland, CA! We're bringing you a night filled with circus, comedy, slam poetry, burlesque, rap battles, laughter, and non-stop fun. Whether you're a comedy enthusiast, an underground art lover, or just looking for a good time, this is the place to be!

The winner of multiple "Best of the Bay" awards, 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." Every show features an all new lineup, and both the freestyle rap battle and slam are open for anyone to sign up and compete for $400 in cash prizes, judged by the audience!Hosted by Jamie DeWolf (HBO’s Def Poetry Jam and NPR's Snap Judgment) and Wonder Dave (Mental Health Comedy Hour), with masters of mayhem DizzyfromEarlier and Little Glitter Bomb!
