Nail-Biter 2024

  • Rio Theatre for the Performing 1205 Soquel Ave Santa Cruz, CA, 95062 United States (map)

Come celebrate, commiserate, or sit and wait while enjoying a night of fun and distraction at the Rio Theatre in Santa Cruz!

No matter the outcome, let’s make Election Night a shared experience! Experience an exciting variety show featuring comedians DNA and Richard Stockton, along with musical performances by Carolyn Sills, Gerard Egan, and Alison Steele.  For a unique twist, master fly fisherman Matt Bohn will demonstrate his skills by attempting to snatch dollar bills straight from audience members’ hands! Your emcee Sven Davis will keep you updated on local, state, and national races throughout the evening.

In the lobby, indulge in a vibrant atmosphere with snacks and refreshments, chair massages, worry beads, body paint by Brenda Leach, micro-therapy sessions, fortune telling, and even Bubble Magic by renowned practitioner Tom Noddy. If the election doesn’t go your way, our Complaints Department professionals will be available on site for your convenience.  

Respectful participants from all voting dispositions are welcome. Expect the unexpected, so bring your sense of humor and some small bills!
