After sellout houses and glowing reviews, DOODLER extends with new dates and a new venue. Don’t miss the show the critics have called “chilling,” “gripping,” a “masterpiece,” “a joy to watch,” “compelling,” “witty,” and “very enjoyable,”* and audiences have heralded as “super energetic and interesting,” “athletic,” “great,” and a ”fantastic story and performance.”** DOODLER tells the tale of the “Doodler,” who terrorized San Francisco in the 1970s. All of his victims were gay men. He picked them up in the Castro and Polk Gulch neighborhoods, had sex with them in the Outsidelands, and then stabbed them to death. When he met each man he presented him with something, something that charmed him. This is the story of a gay man who is determined to find the Doodler and revenge the death of one of his victims.

Fifty years later, the case is still open, and the yet unidentified “Doodler” is the subject of John Fisher’s latest one-man show.

In a unique “take” on the on the one-man show format, for the four weeks of Doodler’s performance run, John Fisher will truly be a one-man show - running his own lights and sound from the stage, house managing, even selling concessions and merchandise, while enacting a complex, true San Francisco story with a still-beating heart, for the Doodler case was recently re-opened.
