SADOMUSICAL: SO FUNNY IT HURTS* (*THE ARTISTS)

Description

Art is pain. Pain is art. Two "definitely not masochistic" artists take on the challenge of a lifetime: to create musical comedy with feeling-while feeling the real pain of electrocution.

In what may be their worst idea yet, veteran musical improvisers Lee Apsey ('CSI: Crime Scene Improvisation,' 'Your Flaws: The Improvised Musical') and Jayda Fogel ('Bird and Tax Collector,' '¡Horario Estelar!') weave hilarious and sincere songs, sketches, and stories with the inspiration of the audience and the threat of being shocked, shackled, dunked, and beaten with a stick.

You'll be shocked, and so will the players-literally.

From the award-winning co-creator of multiple Edinburgh Fringe sell-out hit 'CSI: Crime Scene Improvisation.'

"Astonishingly funny… brilliant concept." ***** GJD REVIEWS

"A very clever show by two outrageously intelligent and talented performers." THEATREVIEW

"Take someone you adore." SCENE MAG
