About The Encyclopedia Show DC 


The Encyclopedia Show DC brought their nerdcore vaudeville to the DC in 2012. Grassroots community theatre at its nerdiest; this vaudevillian extravaganza uses art to dissect a different encyclopedia entry each month.

Founded in 2008 in Chicago by Robbie Q Telfer and Shanny Jean Maney, The Encyclopedia Show has exploded planetarily to over 25 cities worldwide and now is in the Nation?s Capital!

Though the show is accredited by the Institute of Human Knowledge and Hygiene, it is our ongoing mission to chafe against logic and proof, find meaning in obfuscation, and wrest truth from fact once and for all.
