ABOUT THE DUKES:
Hugo V, Jon Bolden, Mikey Sully, Kyle the Trobb, Quinn the Buck

The Dukes delight in finding a new topic / subject for each performance (selected by the internet community via our Facebook profile). We individually research said topic and bring our own discoveries into an improvised comedy show. We'll share our thoughts with you and jump into a whirlwind of academic antics. What happens when the Theory of Relativity, Japanese theater traditions, or the history of Easter Island gets interpreted through five knuckleheads? Find out! What will we be The Dukes of this week?

Check out the action and leave a topic suggestion on our Facebook page:

ABOUT SNACKERS:

We are a family of five entertainers who are professionally trained and psychologically drawn to stab you in the heart with adorable laughter.

Our performances center on improvised comedy stories made up on the spot based on inspiration given to us by the audience.

From our Facebook fan page, we have chosen "alchemy". I'm excited to do some research because this is something I know NOTHING about.

BUMP! See the Dukes & Snackers at SVT 10pm, $5

Tonight! Our topic (as chosen by our facebook page) is the traditional wise monkeys who proverbialize "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil". Where did they come from? What do they mean? Where have we seen them in popular culture?

Not to be confused with the American comedy starring Gene Wilder & Richard Pryor:

UPDATE! A lady in the audience just happen to have a ""see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" tattoo. She didn't tell us until after the show so we couldn't incorporate it into the improv, but it was still awesome, nonetheless.

Stay tuned, we may be making an appearance at No Shame this Friday at 10pm, details formulating...
