CSz announces lineup for World Championship

More news today from the 2010 COMEDYSPORTZ WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP… they’ve announced the lineup of teams that will be throwing down in just over two weeks, and it looks to be a colossal run of match ups.

First up for our Philadelphia Fightin’ Amish is a revolutionary rematch, with the birthplace of American freedom taking on invading players from the UK. Then the following night, our friends stand toe-to-toe against Chicago… a rockstar team overflowing with talent the likes of Rene Duquesnoy, Tamara Nolte and Rance Rizzutto, amongst others.

But of course loyal fans know that while the competitive spirit is part and parcel to every show, the real winner is the audience – who gets to enjoy a bunch of improvisers doing what they do best – having fun. So regardless of which match you make it out to, or who you cheer for… it’s going to be a lot of fun. Passes are available for one show, a full night or the whole Championship:

A Farewell to Bad Hair Sketch Comedy

This Thursday when the members of Bad Hair take the stage, it may only be their 4th time playing this annual show, but it will be their final night in a long line of laughs.

The sketch comedy group has been a steady fixture on the local scene for many years, having performed at the Adrienne, Trocadero, Painted Bride, the Khyber, World Cafe Live and many other venues throughout the city. They’ve launched many successful runs of Fringetastic Sketchtacular for the Philly Fringe and were most recently seen at the Philly SketchFest.

Thursday night will be presented as Best Of… featuring a selection memorable favorites from past shows.
