Sinbad never tells jokes- “I don’t know any,” he admits-but rather stalks the stage, telling real-life stories. He doesn’t deliver payoff lines; he slam-dunks them. His comedy is large, physical, and impetuous. Psychologically, he jams us, poking holes in our lifestyles. His stories mirror our foibles. His is the explosive energy of the neighborhood; his phrasing is manic, musical and right on time. He doesn’t write his material; he relives it as he remembers it.

An Evening With Colin Mochrie & Brad Sherwood
Saturday, October 18th at 8pm

Following enormously successful solo tours, Colin Mochrie & Brad Sherwood, stars of the Emmy nominated Whose Line Is It Anyway? have teamed up to present an evening of extraordinary improvisational comedy.

Using only their lightning fast wit and suggestions from the audience, Colin and Brad create two hours of hilarity. The show is truly interactive. And no one is safe, as audience members are brought up on stage to participate in the fun.
