We at Jackalope Carnival: A Sideshow of Stories
would like to thank all the performers and guests
who made Meemaw’s Brush With Mystery such a success!
Super big thanks to
Black Cherry Puppet Theater, Baltimore, MD for hosting the event!
Together we raised over $300 for Gentle Giants Draft Horse Rescue!
Have FOMO? Don’t worry, Meemaw’s will be back to live hi-jinks October 2026!

Gentlefolk and not so gentlefolk, step right up to our sideshow of stories for an evening of prose, poetry and more!
Meemaw’s Brush With Mystery: A Sideshow of Stories is a celebration of true(ish) tales, performed live on stage at Baltimore’s historic Black Cherry Puppet Theater.
You’ll hear stories that are eerie, uncanny, and delightfully strange from ghostly encounters to family lore. We’ll share those weird little moments that began to make you wonder, “Could there be something else out there?” Have your own story? Join in for our open mic section. This is the first of what we hope will be many live gatherings and we’d love you to come and share in the excitement. So come one, come all, to Meemaw’s parlor, we can’t wait to see you for an evening of wonder, wit, and weirdness.
Remember folks, mystery is never far away and the truth is in the telling.
Want to Tell a Story, or a Poem? It’s not too late, we’ll be back October 2026!
