Show Synopsis
Sex, skydiving, television commercials from ancient Babylon, musical numbers performed by troupes of dancing pigs*, action/adventure cliffhangers*, Scottish yoga, new religions, terrorism teambuilding exercises, job interviews* and police interrogations, and loud bars and louder sportscasters are only many of the even manier things you’ll find mashed cheek-by jowl into this sketch comedy program. It is widely credited as humorous. Live musical performance and an original animated short round out this production by veteran San Francisco performers and heavy drinkers M. Benjamin Wilson, Phillip T. Nails, and all the friends, associates, and sidewalk strangers they could guilt into helping them out.


Nonalphabetically,

M. Benjamin Wilson is a writer, monologist, and half of the musical performance team Amusica (featured in De Rerum Natura). As an animator, his work has appeared in the Spike & Mike Sick and Twisted Festival; and his book Platitudes for a Life in Hell is helping dozens to live richer, fuller lives of nearly insufferable cynicism.

Phillip T. Nails writes, acts, moves, dances, and sings. There is no money in it for him and he loves it. Tuesday nights you can find him MC’ing the Red Light Open Mic at Amnesia Bar in the Mission. Author of two books of poetry and creator of one spoken word CD, he now finds himself in cahoots with fellow recovering open mic junkie and friend Marc Wilson. Let there be comedy!
