Not music this time - Improv Comedy!  I make my debut on the SAK stage with my very talented SAK U classmates for our graduation show!

If you’ve been to a SAK show, you know the format… if not, think “Whose Line Is It Anyway” - completely improvised scenes, skits, games, that all result in hilarity or train wrecks (which is actually even funnier).

And admission is FREE!  So what’s your excuse?  You have none!  None, I say!

SAK is located in the parking garage at the Orlando Centroplex, corner of Amelia and Hughey.  For info and directions, call 407-648-0001, or clicky on www.sak.com.

PARKING NOTE:  There is a Magic game that night, so the garage will be charging for parking, and there is a risk of it being full.  I would suggest carpool & bring cash, or park downtown and catch the Lymmo (also free!) which will bring you right into the garage and drop you at SAK’s doorstep.

The Dynamic Duo decends on Cricketer’s!  This is most likely the last show of the year, so come on out and have a pint.  Maybe come early, do some Christmas shopping at the adjacent Prime Outlet Mall, then stop by and relax with a beverage.  Or two.  Or more.

We’re back at Cricketer’s Arms in September and October!  This is a triumphant return - we haven’t played Cricketer’s since they moved from the old location, so here’s to the beginning of a renewed, beautiful friendship.

Cricketer’s is an Orlando institution, having been THE pub of choice for local hospitality and tourism employees to gather as they get off work.  If you haven’t yet checked them out at their new digs, you must - they brought all the decor from the old place over and pretty much recreated the place, so you’ll feel right at home!

We’re baaaaack!  Three big dates at the Celt, downtown’s best Irish pub and restaurant.  Check out the pics from our debut in the “Past Gigs - Duo” link on the right, and you’ll see it’s a good time at that joint when we’re in the house.

See you there!

Really, is anyone shocked that Billy Mays most likely died of a heart attack?  After all, we have hours of footage of him getting totally worked up over the smallest things, like throwing a ball of detergent into the wash or shoving a hook through drywall.  His adrenaline levels would be pushed to the edge at just the idea of chopping onions with a plastic gadget instead of a knife. 

All that excitement was bound to catch up with him.

Back at Maggie O’s for every Friday in July!  If you haven’t come out yet, you must. Not only is the food great and the pub kickin’, but you haven’t partied until you’ve partied with a room full of Irish tourists.

SW corner of I-Drive and Kirkman, diagonally opposite the Sweet Tomatoes.  See you there!

Awesome time at the Celt this last weekend!  Were you there?
