Comedy Marathon: Einstein Meets Elvis, Big Dicktionary, and The Shock T's (Fri) and The 708 (Sat)
Einstein Meets Elvis (Atlanta)
Einstein meets Elvis is rocket-fueled improv! JaCKPie's award winning touring team, EmE, is made up of an all-star cast that promises to rock your socks off. (EmE not responsible for lost socks.) A "real life" filmmaker, a lawyer, a computer guru, a builder of motorcycles and graphics, a master of props, a builder of songs and music, an actor and an actress ... these minds create a show that just can't be missed. They'll put the party up in yo' business, light your test tube, and you'll shake your pelvis, when Einstein Meets Elvis!
Big Dicktionary (Charleston)
Big Dicktionary is a two-person, long-form improvisational comedy team composed of Timmy Finch and John Brennan. The two have just enough in common to share the stage and break many of the "rules" to entertain. Neither one is safe from the other as they keep the show tight and fast even as they call out each others' foibles. Oh yeah, they use a very big dictionary in the show.
The Shock T's (Friday night show only) (Chicago)
The Shock T's are a trio of musical comedians from Chicago who write and perform all their own material and have been together just over a year. The three met after graduating from Second City's Conservatory and now perform anywhere they can, from bars to theaters, presenting their own take on musical comedy.
The 708 (Saturday night only) (Raleigh)
It's time for something truly amazing. Beginning with an invocation, any ordinary object you suggest becomes a larger-than-life experience that inspires the eight-person team for all the scenes that follow. The 708 are veterans of the DSI Comedy philosophy. They perform the Harold. Sit back and enjoy.
