Mistressbate: A New Musical (A Reading!)

  • Brooklyn Comedy Collective (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Sat Sep 7 @ 9:30PM

When St. Chastity High's most popular girl, Blaise Paige, gets suspended for releasing a video of herself masturbating with a selfie-stick, the entire school implodes. Without the social hierarchy gatekeeper herself, who's still your friend? Who's now your enemy? Amidst this tumult, three girls step forward and claim it is actually them (their bodies, their hands, their selfie sticks) in the video, and that Blaise should be exonerated. An investigation is kicked off by a group of incompetent adults. This random crop of new suspects includes Kiki, the Pokemon-loving, least popular girl in school; Paige Blaise, the Swedish over-achieving foreign exchange student; and Angela, Blaise's best friend. Who's telling the truth? And why do these three have reason to lie? It's Dear Evan Hansen meets Mean Girls. It's a musical, but for kids who were popular in high school. An exploration of young sexual frustration, intimate female friendships, and the merits of bullying, Mistressbate will have you wondering who to sympathize with. Also, the songs are super catchy. Come see a reading of this new original musical by Sophie Zucker (Comedy Central)!

Featuring: Sophie Zucker, Ian Lockwood, Maya Sharma, Justin Linville, Kyle Gordon, Lucyana Randall, Andrés Govea, Charlie Bardey, and the Ladies Who Ranch (Kelly Cooper, Caitlin Dullea, Caroline Yost)

Silly Karaoke Showdown! is a competitive parody-song game show. Think American Idol, if all the songs were written by a Weird Al super fan.

There will be celebrity (impersonator) judges. There will be sing-along karaoke tracks. There will be funny characters. Oh, and did I mention ALL audience members receive their very own complimentary kazoo?

SKS! previously ran at Nerdist’s NerdMelt Showroom (Los Angeles), where it was a Critic’s Pick in LA Weekly and listed frequently in Pop Radar’s 20 Awesome Things to Do In Los Angeles.
