   Off Broadway Theatre's Comedian Bio
Websitetheobt.com
TV Shows"Laughing Stock TV" (You should buy the DVD for the complete series. It's available at the theater now!) Or, you can watch it on YouTube.com, look for the links in the video gallery of the Laughing Stock website. Or, you could download many of the episodes from iTunes.

    Off Broadway Theatre's Interests
GeneralImprov comedy interests us quite a bit. In fact, comedy in general. We've been making Utah laugh since 1994. Longer if you count the factthat many of us were cracking people up long before that. Hopefully, no one got hurt in those early days. And so far, there have been a minimal of lawsuits in the professional comedy arena. Whew! Dodged that one. Especially when Ben's teeth went through his lip. Or when Russ hit Clarence in the face with a chair. Or my personal favorite, when Paul decided to attempt a backflip for the first time in his life and nearly killed himself. Good times. Good times.
MusicWe could make a list of favorite artists, sure. But we prefer to be a bit more self-involved. There have been many great musical parodies at the Off Broadway Theatre over the years. We've also done some great musicals like "The Pirates of Penzance" and "Little Shop of Horrors." Plus, during the improv shows you never know when we'll break out in a song, like the classics "Damn!" and "Oh, Cananada."
TelevisionWe had our own TV show on KUWB-TV in 2005. They decided against renewing the show for a second season. Apparently, they decided that they could make more money showing infomercials than our show. We were getting great ratings, too. But they decided that we had no demographics. Hard to believe, you know, here in the real world. But true. Oh so sad and true.
HeroesWe have many heroes. In fact, there are too many to mention here. Okay, Rob Bogue. We'll leave it at that and go on with our lives.

About me:

The Off Broadway Theatre

The Off Broadway Theatre (OBT) is Salt Lake's downtown hot spot for comedy.

The OBT is known for our parodies. Recently, our parodies of Sherlock Holmes and Peter Pan have played to sell-out crowds. If you love to laugh, this is indeed the place.

OBT is also the home of Utah's longest-running and most popular improv comedy show, the Laughing Stock Improv Troupe. If you've seen "Whose Line Is It Anyway?", you know the basics. The difference is, here there are no TV cameras and tape editing. You see the genius and the foolishness. Often times, the foolishness is more funny. And, it's what sets Laughing Stock apart from the rest.

The Troupe has played to over 200 straight sold out shows. We are located in downtown Salt Lake City at 272 S. Main St., and you can contact us by phone at 801-355-4628 (that's 355-4OBT for those who want an easy way to remember our number).




Who I'd like to meet:



This the full pilot episode, and is nearly 25 minutes long. It's gonna take awhile to fully load. You can always hit play to start it loading, then hit pause and come back in a minute or two.

This was the pilot episode for our beloved television show, "Laughing Stock TV". It ran for 16 weeks in early 2005. Our ratings were good, but we were poor. Unfortunately, while we no longer have ratings, we remain poor.

You can see more from Laughing Stock by visiting the video gallery at LaughingStock.us.

The recipe for beauty is to have less illusion and more Soul, to retreat from the belief of pain or pleasure in the body into the unchanging calm and glorious freedom of spiritual harmony.

Loved Phantom of the OBT, everyone! As usual, a great play. I put a flier up on a bulletin board at work. :)

Happiness is excitement that has found a settling down place. But there is always a little corner that keeps flapping around.

Sorry I missed out on the last showing of The CTR Superstar, I made it the night before though, that ought to count for something!!
Lochsalt





Aug 14 2007 3:53 AM

CTR Superstar can stop a speeding swear word! in his teeth! Also I think the underlying story line is between paul iggy mist's wives plotting their escape from their southern utah compound!

My in-laws looooved "CTR Superstar." And when my husband picked me up afterward, I learned they had thanked us with a big squash. No joke. So it's true what they say.

Jul 29 2007 7:50 PM

hey i just wanted to let you guys know that i came into the theater last night not feeing quite 100%. (I was actually closer to 28%), and after I left, I felt like I could be the CTR superstar, or catch an ewok-driven rickshaw.

sad i didn't make it to henry botter auditions, but that's what you get when you're at the doctor's office.

keep coming with the funnies.
