Next up: RED DEER!
April 6th! Almost a year after our one-night sketch comedy event blew minds and melted brains in Red Deer for the first time, we return to Red Deer to bring the guffaws and set hearts aflame… FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY! AGAIN! It’s going to have everything… Comedy… Sketches… Sketch comedy… Maybe some songs, some dancin’, some romancin’… Online tickets already available, so if you want to get your tickets early go to the trusty ol’ PURCHASE TICKETS HERE link and get ‘em while you can. Otherwise our box office opens @ 730pm on April 6th at the Scott Block Theatre! So if you’re 1.88 hours driving distance (or less) from Red Deer, you should see this show… And if you can’t see this show, tell your friends all about it… Deal? Great! See you (and/or your friends) there! HUGS!

Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, Tragically Delicious is a sketch comedy show full of whimsy, music, dance, romance, cereal, joy, and laughter. The cereal is a symbol of the tasty comedic goodness in this show, but the rest of the description for this delightful sketch comedy romp is totally accurate.
And if you’re Irish, your ticket is only $15!
Talkin’ Shop with Amos, Cliff and The Mongoose!
OSCARS 2013 EDITION!
So.. Cliff didn’t see any movies in 2013… And the Mongoose only saw The Dark Knight Rises (“Sucked!”), Resident Evil: Retribution (“Ruled!”) and Step Up 4: Revolution (“The most emotionally resonant film I’ve ever seen”)… So that leaves me. Hi, I am Amos… And when I am not preparing our next show (Tragically Delicious, March 13-16, Calgary AB, 8pm, 204 16th Ave NW) with our wonderful cast, I cry in the tub, eat tacos, and sometimes watch movies… So here’s my list of the best movie-films and, in addition, performances of 2012.

POWER BALLAD vs. Safe Haven
This will be a smackdown of epic proportions…
Reasons to skip Safe Haven next weekend:
- you’re being coerced with the promise of sex or cake, but those promises will likely be broken once you fall asleep 5 minutes into the movie
- this movie promises to be a giant piece of shit… just redundant drivel…
- one “hot” guy in Safe Haven isn’t better than 4 hot guys in Power Ballad
- you don’t like torturing your intellect
- one “hot” lady isn’t better than 3 hot ladies in Power Ballad
- you want to keep shitty movies from making money, so there’s less incentive for Hollywood to make such shitty movies
Reasons to see Power Ballad this week (Feb 13-15):
- you’re pretty sure that this show will freely open you to the possibility of good times, laughter, joy and a bit of post-show sex and/or cake
- drivel? depends on your sense of humour… redundant? NEVER!
- 3 hot ladies
- 4 hot guys
- unpredictable story arcs
- more music than an episode of Treme
- Jesus sightings
- battle scenes, love scenes, Purim scenes
-busting of moves
- hilarious wigs
- supporting local artists appeals to you
- Pat Quinn
… and many more!
WINNER: POWER BALLAD. See it, because if you see Safe Haven you’re clearly an idiot.
The Secret Word!
Alright gang! A Late, Late Breakfast Power Ballad is only 2 weeks away… And for the 4 people who check out our website, we shall offer up a POWER BALLAD password for 5 dollar tickets. It’s also for our 242 fans on facebook, our dozens of secret fans not on facebook, newbies, people who dislike our show but can’t resist a deal, all Calgarians over the age of 17, and Matt Damon (not you, Clooney! …okay, you can come too!)… It is available to use for our online tickets (available here) or at our cash-only box office, which is open 30 minutes before all showtimes… And so, finally, the password is: SPEEDWAGON
