Laughing Gas Hoops It Up With "March
Madness 2005" March 18-19th and March 25-26th
The Laughing
Gas Comedy Improv Theatre Company continues their
tradition of socially relevant comedy with a send-up of the upcoming
NCAA Basketball Tournament and other events in their shows
Friday and Saturday nights in late March (18th, 19th, 25th &
26th) at 11pm at the Main Street Playhouse (6766 Main Street,
Miami Lakes). "March Madness 2005" presents 90
minutes of fast-paced comedy set to beat the clock and take a
few free throws at the expense of college hoops.
Laughing Gas welcomes all University of Miami Hurricanes
basketball players, the Hurricane Cheerleaders and the
Hurricanettes Dance Team for free for these special shows.
"We hope they'll have something better to do those nights,"
says cast member Todd Rice. "But if they won't be playing
in games, there's nothing more likely to cheer them up than our
shows."
Audience members will also be allowed to submit their predictions
for the Final Four for a chance to win 2 free tickets
to a future Laughing Gas performance.
"We all enjoy the tournament," says Laughing Gas
Director Gerald Owens. "But there's also humor in the
fact that the entire nation screeches to a halt when everyone
watches a bouncing orange ball."
Over
the past several months, Laughing Gas has performed shows to "Improv
The Vote", lampooned pop-culture and helped with their
"Improv-ing The Community" campaign raising money
for charities. Laughing Gas has been picked as a Social
Miami "Pick of the Week" several times for
their themed shows and is regularly recognized for its socially
relevant material. Laughing Gas was also honored as Best Short-Form
Improv Troupe at the Improv Miami Prizes 2004.
