Sketch Groups

[Holmes]

Hey everyone,
I'd love to hear more about the sketch groups in Philly. I'm sure that there are some that I haven't heard of. I just found out about a new one yesterday.

What groups have you seen and what do you have to say about them?

This may be shamless, but in a few days BAD HAIR will have its new web site up, complete with video!!

We haven't been in Philly since the Fringe (though we've had shows in Chicago and Delaware), but we'll be launching a Philly tour soon with great new material.

Another good group in town in The Wait Staff.

There's a number of groups in town including BAD HAIR, The Waitstaff, SKITsoid, The Minor Prophets, Comic Energy, Secret Pants and a few others that I can't think of.

The Waitstaff has two shows this weekend at The Five Spot so you can check them out for yourself. Haven't heard from SKITsoid in a while but I am sure they are busy. The Minor Prophets and Secret Pants have videos on their respective websites. Don't know what's up with Comic Energy.

As for BAD HAIR (to echo Dave) we have a new website coming soon with video as well as a video podcast and a brand new show that we are planning to tour.

I'd say sketch is doing well in Philly, bitches.

I'll say one other thing - I've seen The Waitstaff, SKITsoid and The Minor Prophets. I'd like to see Secret Pants (I always seem to have a conflict). It's important to see what else is out there and network. We're all in the same trench.

I've seen The Wait Staff a few times. A friend of mine from high school acts and writes for them. They have a pretty funny show. Tickets are expensive, though, and Five Spot drinks aren't cheap.
