Comedy Legend Overload!

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on October 26th, 2004

We’re looking forward to heading to Easton, PA, next Friday (Nov. 5) to see “The Comedians,” a show featuring comedians Shelley Berman, Irwin Corey, Bill Dana, Dick Gregory and Mort Sahl! From the press release:

The evening has been described as “truly a once in a lifetime experience to see the most influential and innovative performers ever all on one stage. There has never been an event, either live or on television or film, that has brought together such a distinguished group of purely American comedy creators and visionaries.”

Can anyone quarrel with that description? We’re going to try to get some pics. It ought to be fascinating. Oh, and the whole affair is being hosted by Dick Cavett. We’re not sure if this is a tour or a one-off show. We’ll try to find out if there are any other shows like this one scheduled.
