Banana Pitch is a place of immense talent that encourages boundary pushing and curiosity and crying and laughing and clapping and singing and stomping and dancing and shouting and storytelling and nonsensicality. Art, above all. That’s what it is.

Remove the part about the fear of doing it and you’ve got Banana Pitch.

It started with the idea for a show…

Pitch on the Streets

Banana Pitch talks to people who are excited about what they’re doing.

Check out some of the ridiculous interviews.

The Banana Pitch Variety show is hosted and produced by music and arts journalist Michelle Kicherer. The vision is big and constantly growing.

This specially curated variety show and interview series features writers, musicians, comedians and "other acts." We’ve interviewed a puppy and had an "eat a cookie together" segment. We’ve had physical comedians and tear-jerking storytellers. Emerging musicians next to rising stars. You never know what'll happen.

Our goal is to put different genres and mediums onto one stage and for folks to sit down for a night of performances you might not normally see, but that you might fall in love with. Guaranteed fun or your money back, questions asked.
