Come See Meg & Rob in the Philly Fringe Festival!

Posted on August 24, 2008 at 09:56 PM

I've become a wacky recluse in the past couple of weeks frantically working on the Meg & Rob show for the Philadelphia Fringe Festival. And even though I do miss sleep dearly, I will admit: I am so excited. Rob and I are doing an entirely new show with a lot of sketches that I'm really proud of.

So hey! If you live in Philadelphia, you should come see our show. We're performing at the Adrienne Theatre at the following days/times:

Friday, August 29 at 10:00 p.m.
Sunday, August 31 at 9:00 p.m.
Wednesday, September 3 at 8:30 p.m.
Thursday, September 11 at 8:30 p.m.
Saturday, September 13 at 10:30 p.m.

Buy tickets here!

Plus! Thanks to incredible cosmic forces, Rob and I will be sharing the bill with improv comedy giants Rare Bird Show. I absolutely love these guys—they do wild, excitable improv that's gotten them into a ton of comedy festivals.

Still not convinced? How about I get you a steak? Here's a little preview video Rob and I put together for the show:

I hope to see you there!

Reviving the Lecture Circuit! This Week! And Next Week! In Philadelphia!

Well. After a number of months of writing and practicing, my dear friend Rob and I are premiering our comedy show Reviving the Lecture Circuit as part of the Philadelphia Fringe Festival tomorrow. Tomorrow! Oh, shit.

The show consists of six modern celebrities telling their stories, from a motivational fitness expert to the presidential candidate who believes that all of America's problems would be solved by having a wolf in every back yard. It's really quite excellent. I'm not just saying that. Heck, I'm proud.

If you live in the Philadelphia area, we would love to see you at the show. Here are the details:

When
Thursday, September 6 at 7:30 p.m.
Friday, September 7 at 8:00 p.m.
Saturday, September 15 at 7:00 p.m.

Where
The Walking Fish Theatre 2509 Frankford Ave Philadelphia, PA 19125

How Much
Just $5! That's the cheapest you can make a Fringe show without it being free!

You can get tickets online through the Philadelphia Fringe Festival. A couple of people have reported problems with the online ordering system, so if it's mean to you, you can also call the box office at 215-413-1318. We'll also be selling tickets at the door.

And if you want to make an evening of it, I highly suggest the show that's before ours on Thursday and Friday, Religion is Retarded. I saw it Tuesday and did some good laughing.
