Spank: TBD New Planet / 2 Kool 2B 4Gotten

It’s a show where we let sketch teams and solo performers try some shit out!

Some will be good, some will be bad but it will all be weird and new and that’s what makes it fun!

It’s experimental sketch at it’s finest! Come on, you know you need a spanking.

This Monday, we have:

Spooky Dookie Presents TBD New Planet: A sketch show from two women with a vision!

The place? The beginning of time. The people? Two spunky upstarts with a million dollar idea for a new planet. Join Spooky Dookie as they pitch their idea for “Earth.” Written and performed by Claire McFadden and Maureen Monahan, this series of interconnected sketches explores the exciting new features of their planet: life, death, and a third thing.

Spooky Dookie is a sketch duo originally from Chicago and now firmly in LA. They’re written six original sketch revues and performed at San Francisco Sketchfest twice, Women’s Funny Festival (Boston), Out of Bounds Comedy Festival (Austin), Hell Yes Fest (New Orleans), and Chicago Sketchfest.

Written & performed by Claire McFadden and Maureen Monahan

Friendo Presents 2 Kool 2B 4Gotten: After 24 years, it’s finally not too soon.

Veteran sketch ensemble Friendo takes audiences back to the early 2000s with a show that slyly asks the question… “too soon?” Leaning into the uncomfortable with their noted style of pop culture-forward, oddball comedy, Friendo dares not to get canceled while mounting a 9/11-themed sketch show. For a show about our nation’s greatest tragedy, 2 Kool 2B 4Gotten ends in patriotic celebration, with the audience singing along.

Performing together since 2018, Friendo has been featured by Funny Or Die, Comedy Cake, The Brooklyn Comedy Festival, New York Sketchfest (2019), Austin Sketchfest (2022) and San Francisco Sketchfest (2023). The cast’s writing credits include Amazon, Fox, Freeform, Netflix, USA Network and WWE.

Cast: Alexander Billet, Marcelina Chavira, Tyler Davidson, Whitney Ellis, Kelsey Goldberg, Andrea Listenberger, Sumner Leveque, Jared Lomeli, E. Sandero
