Do you miss the days when sketch groups really knew how to get things done? Legendary troupe The Firesign Theatre, reuniting after a long hiatus, is booked for a set of live dates in Southern California to celebrate “Nick Danger’s 40th birthday.” The show takes its name from the group’s most famous character, who first appeared in their BBC radio show pilot in 1969, and later on their subsequent albums.
The troupe, consisting of Phil Austin, Peter Bergman, David Ossman and Phillip Proctor, will be performing at the Barnsdall Gallery Theatre in Hollywood with a brand new show entitled Forward, Into The Past! The run goes from Wednesday, Oct. 14 to Saturday, Oct. 17. Click here for info on ticketing.
Also, Firesign’s originial Nick Danger work is being re-released by Shout! Factory on The Firesign Theatre’s Box of Danger, available by clicking the image below.
