We're back in a New York way!

We are back safe and sound from Canada. We had an amazing run in The Toronto and Edmonton Fringe Festivals and are so happy to be back in NYC, performing Channel One in Brooklyn this September.


All together, we were gone for 45 days, rode a bus for 1000 miles, drove 6500 miles, traveled through 2 countries, 12 states, 3 provinces, 5 national parks, 2 floods & one million butterflies. We saw the Amish playing volleyball in a field, bison & deer roaming the earth, glaciers, mountains & hot springs. We handed out 10,000 flyers, put up 150 posters and played Channel One to over 800 adoring fans.

And Canada seemed to like us:
"My God, they're funny" (VUE)
"it's f***ing hilarious... Kind of like actual TV. Only better." (Blog of Jenna Rocca)
"sometimes funny, sometimes raunchy, always awkward" (Edmonton Journal)
"it's a blast of exuberant nonsense... brave new theater" (Edmonton Sun). 


And now the show is ready for you NYC!

Awesome Review in TORONTO!!!!!

Check this out! This angel wrote an amazing review of our show in Toronto.

Here's a taste to get you going, but read the whole thing! Seriously:

“I don't think I can convey the magnitude of their success without putting it so plainly as: it's f***ing hilarious. … Their character-based programming is both satirical and irreverent, with an extra splash of zany. ... Their three-dimensional characterizations have specificity down to the minutest nuance. Their extensive training in clown is more than merely apparent.”
