Hoffman's newest solo act is titled Scraping the Bottom: The Most Offensive Songs of Jackie Hoffman. Show times are 7:30 PM Feb. 4, 11 and 25.

During the concerts Hoffman will "shamelessly retread her meanest musical hits in an evening of song that's just plain wrong," according to press notes. Michael Schiralli directs with musical direction by Bobby Peaco.
