Guests enjoy a guided tasting of six wines during a live performance of "An Idiot's Guide to Wine."

What happens when you combine a wine tasting with a stand-up comedy show? That's the idea behind "An Idiot's Guide to Wine," a 70-minute live experience coming to Fabrika in Fishtown on Friday, Aug. 28. Attendees will sample six wines from around the world while a local comedian guides them through an evening of laughs and wine education.

Written by Australian comedian Merrick Watts, the show blends humor with a guided wine tasting, making it just as entertaining for longtime wine lovers as it is for people who simply enjoy a good glass of wine. 

General admission tickets start at $70, with front-row seats available for $86. Attendees must be 21 or older. Wine is included in the tasting, though alcohol consumption is optional, and nonalcoholic drinks will also be available.
