Pork Filled Players Enter The Year of the Dragon

Seattle's longest running sketch comedy group, the Pork Filled Players, enter the Year of the Dragon with a new edition of their comedy and music cabaret, Spam*O*Rama, Wednesday, February 16, 7:30 pm, at Theatre Off Jackson (407 7th Avenue S., Seattle).

Returning as PFP's musical guest is chanteuse Jennifer O'Brien. Making their Spam-O-Rama debut is the improv/sketch group of Drop the Root Beer and Run. Join them and the Players in jumpstarting the lunar new year with new comedy hijinks and high-octane song stylings that will leave the demons at the door and send luck your way.

Tickets are $10, and are online at http://brownpapertickets.com/event/ 221651.

Scientists, programmers and nerds by day…By night, they are the Pork Filled Players! Since 1997, the Pork Filled Players have waged a never-ending battle to unleash the funny bone in audiences of every race, creed and gender across the Northwest. Beneath their guises as mild-mannered office workers, the Players have honed their humor like a scalpel (or is it dull meat cleaver?) to whack away at notions of race, class and norms in 21st Century America. Adept at sketch comedy and traditional theatre, the Players achieve maximum tongue-in-cheekiness, biting cultural/political satire and hilarious racial disharmony with Amazing Kung-Fu Grip!

Drop the Root Beer and Run (DTRBAR) is a young and fresh eyed troupe new to Seattle having recently emerged from the murky depths of Olympia as former members of The Evergreen State College's comedy collective known as "Generation Friends." DTRBAR works in the mediums of both sketch and improv comedy with a style that's occasionally dark, but always whimsical: a full on, absurdist sensory overload (except for touch and smell).

Jennifer O'Brien is a singer, stage manager and actor with a long list of credits in Seattle, including stints with SIS Productions and Pork Filled Players. She has several appearances at Jazz Alley as a vocalist and has appeared with the Pork Filled Players before as part of Spam*O*Rama.
PFP gives special thanks to the Seattle Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs and 4Culture King County Lodging Tax for their support of our 2011-12 season.
