December 2012 Shows and Sketchfest

Sorry I've been so absent lately, swooping in only long enough to attempt the occasional sports curse and then running off to parts unknown.  I've been too busy preparing for the end of the world the best way I know how: by booking a bunch of shows.

Speaking of, what are you people up to?  Wanna come watch me do some shows?

11/30 Crassus at the Bughouse Theater

10 PM at 2056 W Irving Park (2 blocks west of Irving Park Brown Line)
$10 at the door
Geoff and I are brushing up on some stuff this Friday and, depending on time and stuff, might even try out a couple of new things!  Never worked with these guys before but we hear great things!  Come check it out!

12/6 Crassus at Back Room Comedy
The Atlantic Bar and Grill
8:30 PM at 5062 N Lincoln Ave
Free
Another group we've never worked with, but the Atlantic is well known as a place where comedy shenanigans go down.  Come hang out in Lincoln Square with us while we make fun of the largely German ethnic community!

Zombie Genius
8PM, Saturdays at the Annoyance, December 8th – January 26th
4830 N Broadway, Chicago
$15 at the door or through annoyanceproductions.com
We've been working this show for a good couple of months now.  The first few performances were in August, then we did a short run in October, and now the Annoyance has asked us back again.  I wrote the music and perform in this Zombie love story.

1/4 Creepy Hug at Chicago Sketchfest
Stage 773
8 PM at 1225 W Belmont in the Pro theater
For tickets, call 773-327-5252 or stage773.com
Working on this with a couple of friends of mine.  The show is going to be all music sketches, so I'll be getting in my guitar reps.

1/5 Robot vs Dinosaur at Chicago Sketchfest
Stage 773
7 PM at 1225 W Belmont in the Thrust theater
For tickets, call 773-327-5252 or stage773.com
Reprising our summer hit Wait Wait... Don't Kill Me.  I hope you all like puns!

Geoff and I go legit so hard for our first Chicago Sketchfest.

Provided I make it through all of this, I plan on collapsing the rest of January.
