Laughing Gas Announces:
"The 2004 eMTeeVee Video Music A-Weirds"
The Laughing Gas
Comedy Improv Theatre Company, South Florida's
longest running professional improv troupe, is performing a special
show, the "eMTeeVee Video Music A-Weirds". Scheduled for
both Friday and Saturday nights, August 27th and 28th, at 11pm
in Miami Lakes and Coral Gables respectively, the shows will lampoon
the Pop extravaganza scheduled that Sunday. In a series of sketches,
E!Entertainment News spoofs and celebrity impersonations, Laughing
Gas intends to continue its 12 year tradition of providing high-quality
family entertainment, this time at the expense of the MTv
elite.
Comedy Without a Net
The Laughing Gas Comedy Improv
Theatre Company presents 90 minutes of comedy, most of
which is improvised on the spot from suggestions given by the
audience. Often starting with a single random idea, like a location
or a relationship, the cast will create characters and situations
that will soon have the audience rolling in the aisles. The show
also incorporates music, television and commercial parodies and
more. Laughing Gas must be Miami's best-kept entertainment
secret,
because South Florida's premiere improv troupe is now in its twelfth
season! The troupe has always been committed to presenting interactive
entertainment that is both intelligent and profoundly silly.
Now
in Two Quality Theaters
Laughing Gas has added a show on Fridays at the
newly-completed Main Street Playhouse, located at
6766 Main Street in Miami Lakes. Laughing Gas still
appears on Saturday nights at the critically acclaimed
New Theatre,
located at 4120 Laguna Street in Coral Gables.
Curtain time for all shows is 11:00 PM, and admission is
$12. No age restriction, no drink minimum. For reservations,
call 305-461-1161. Visit the home page at www.laughinggasimprov.com.
We're
Pros
Unlike many other area improv companies,
Laughing Gas performers are mostly professional actors
and comedians who also work in live theatre, television, feature
films, commercials and industrial films, and several are stand-up
comedians as well. For instance, Gerald
Owens can be seen in a series of national commercials
for GameZnFlix.com starring former "Dell Dude"
Ben Curtis (click here
to view the commercials). James
Carrey and Ethan
Smith just completed their roles in a new Sean Astin
film Thanks to Gravity, due to be released in early
2005. Andy Sottilare
appears in countless local and regional commercials, and will
soon be seen in the crime film, Carlita's Secret.
He just wrapped production of an indie science fiction film, 1Annunaki,
which also featured Todd
Rice. On the boards, Deborah
L. Sherman earned critical praise in back to back productions
at GableStage and the Hollywood Playhouse earlier
this season. Many members are also active in Miami's busy independent
film scene. Click here to
