What do Garden State, Little Miss Sunshine, Lost in Translation, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind have in common? There was no assigned seating at the venues I viewed them? NO, they are all comedy dramas! Ding! Ding! Ding! Sure these films have captured the essence of the genre, but would you like to know more about the true lover slash “pioneers” of dramedy? Then don’t miss THE DRAMEDIANS Friday, August 17th at Brooklyn Comedy Collective at The Brick Theater. Directed by Brett Davis (The Special Without Brett Davis, Podcast for Laundry, Andy Kaufman Award winner), and brought to you by Kelly Cooper and Maya Sharma, the new satirical play is about people who deeply love tragicomedies and “follows the autobiographical story of Kelly and Maya, as a (tragic and comedic) incident involving the death of a dog changes the course of their lives — both in the play, and in real life.” Heavy! Kids, it’s a play within a play where the fourth wall will be smashed “to address the level of excellence in dramedy” your trailblazers have achieved. Don’t miss out!
Mentions: Show 9:30pm. Tickets $10. Brooklyn Comedy Collective at The Brick Theatre is located at 579 Metropolitan Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11211. Images by Jessika Stocker.
