in production

since the end of the Sunday show by The Pretty Okay Ho-hum Spectacular on Ice!, i have been wokring on a comedy show of my own design and have recently gone into production for the video segments of said comedy show.

my show will be a one night only deal at the new Upright Citzens Brigade Theater opening here in Los Angeles. The theater opens July 2nd and kicks off the month with sketch and improv shows from the UCB as well as some of the top comedians in LA, which for some reason is where i come in. i was asked to do a show on Saturday, July 23rd at 9:30PM. and thus, "The Curse of P.P. Fartinghma's Gorilla Suit" was born.

yesterday we went into the production of the first video for the show. below is a picture from yesterday of P.P. Fartingham's Circus; 1931.


"The Curse of P.P. Fartingham's Gorilla Suit";
starring Jenn Fee, Billy Ferguson, Nic Wegner, Moses Robinson, and of course myself.

with cameos by Neil Campbell, Paul Rust, Charlyne Yi, Michael Busch, Daniel Fogland, Danforth France, Pat Healy, Josh Fadem, and Wingnut the dog.

there's lots more work to be done and then there's the actual show itself. it weights heavy on me and i would love to see you all there. more info to be in the coming weeks. stay tuned!
