Resonance is a free, all-ages event hosted by St. Brigid’s Episcopal Church and Oceanside Theatre Company that builds community through creative expression. Held in OTC's Studio 219 (219 North Coast Highway), this is a space for all creatively-inclined people—artists, musicians, writers, and more—to showcase their work and to practice spontaneous creation together. It’s not quite an open mic, jam session, drum circle, or art night—but it has elements of all of these. All are welcome to participate as much or as little as they choose. If you’d prefer to just come and enjoy the vibe and performances, you are welcome to do that too.

Unlike traditional musicals that follow a script, this show blends comedy, music, and improvisational theater into a unique performance that never happens the same way twice. An experience that’s funnier than "Cats." National Comedy Theatre San Diego on Facebook / Instagram
