11th Annual Dumb Diseases Concert
2026-04-10 19:30 - 22:30 | The Bingen Theater, 210 N Oak St, 98605, Bingen, Washington, 98605
Molly Schwarz has been performing her annual sold-out “I Hate Cancer Concert” since 2012, with a small break for that pesky pandemic. For the third year, she has shifted the focus to a rare disease that is very close to her heart. With Scleroderma being so under the radar, she is thrilled to be shining a light on the nasty disease and raising much-needed funds that directly go to the SRF, Scleroderma Research Foundation.
Molly has been performing all her life, with her favorite genre being Musical Theater. Since moving to Hood River, she has been running “Music For Children” for many years. She has worked in comedy at The Groundlings in L.A. and The Upright Citizens Brigade in NYC. She is so excited to make you laugh and maybe make you cry and quite possibly pee a little. Here’s to the “Eleventh Annual Dumb Diseases Concert – Featuring Scleroderma”!
This one isn’t for the kids, so get yourself a sitter and enjoy a night out!
