The Left, The Right, and the Ugly...

The fetching Mrs. and I went the Brave New Workshop this past weekend to see their latest offering, "'The Left, The Right, and the Ugly' or 'Blue State Blues'." This is the 3rd or 4th show of theirs that we've gone to see, and it's flipping hilarious, as always.

For those of you not familiar with the BNW, it's a sketch comedy troupe that is locally renowned for its political satire. Some of the past titles we've seen include "Martha Stewart is a Prison Vixen" and "Bushwhacked: One Nation Under Stress." The titles tell you pretty much all you need to know about the level of reverence to be found in their shows, but I'm telling you, if you've never gone to one of their shows, try it out - it's always worth the money.

The only video I could find of their latest show is not even close to being the best skit that they did in the show, but you'll get the gist. The linked skit is pretty low-brow (which some of their skits inevitably are), but there are a lot of other ones that require a little bit more thought than the potty humor you'll see in that link.

All in all, it was an extremely funny show - highly recommended.
