Maude Night Highlights 8/18
- Thread starter rixtyseven
- Start date
Enjoyed the "It's too Hot to install an air conditioner" scene, the commitment of the performers in the "Chocoholics" scene, and my pick for line of the night:
"This is my daughter, drink your juice", after we found out that her mother has Munchausens by proxy.
Before the show in the Chill Out Room I saw a Roomba being outfitted with matchbox cars so it could be rolled across the stage pulled by a wire. This is why I love sketch comedy.

I missed Mixtape’s show- I’m sorry!
In SCF: I thought D’arcy freaking out in the “lee is an alcoholic” sketch was very fun to watch. And in the Milkman sketch when Scott left and knocked over his chair and then picked it up was really funny and well done.
In Skuntz: the dad doing the videotape was a great premise and really well acted by Mike Still. “I’m sorry I was so hard on you as a teenager!” And at the end when he said “I’m just gonna make faces for “baby you” for the rest of the tape” was so sweet and then the fade on him making faces made me so so sad that I might have welled up a little bit. And of course, “Sailing” takes me away.
I also liked the repetition of “Arsenic” in the Check scene- a great sub game.
AND THANKS PAT BAER!! Awesome work, we'll miss you yellin at us

Sailing is one of my favorite sketches at Maude ever. I love that the audience laughed at Mike just singing as the lights came up. Great "why" and great heightening. Also, Thunder's breakdown that ended with "FUCK YOUR MOM"!
Also, as mentioned, the son video was sad and wonderful. "He has it rough, his father was video tape".

I loved 27 Kidneys' phone sandwich. I have a soft spot for elaborate set-ups of extremely short sketches (I feel like Will Hines may have said that once, but I feel that way too, so I can say it.)
Sailing! How perfect.
I could watch Mike Still do nothing for 5 minutes and I would be entertained.
Actually, one of my favorite moments of the night was standing backstage watching Damian Chadwick's face during "Chocoholic," which he wrote. It's an awesome feeling to hear your sketch go over well and I was so proud of him... sniff.
Credit goes to Tim Dunn for coming up with the character of Trudy and the line "drink your juice."
Oscar Magallanes also deserves credit as a singer in the Trudy Theme Song.
My hat. You're welcome.
