The P! Company MEGASHOW: The 'P!' stands for Poopy
An unbiased review by Megan Williamson
Prepare for THE P! COMPANY MEGASHOW. The Texas Travesty is producing a new night of comedy with Austin’s local sketch comedy group, The P! Company. It's a free show so clear your calendars for October 17th at 8:00pm in The Texas Union Theater.
It guarantees to be an evening consisting of ...videos (a few are funny; most are not) and some live material (no guarantees).
Their moniker is "Sketch Comedy for Nerds" a tagline that suggests that they may have comfortably fit into your high school's A.V. club. However, they lack the awkwardness and charm of the nostalgic video nerd.
To be frank, I do not like this group. And in the interest of full disclosure, I was romantically linked with Mr. Sweeney for less than a week. Although I sincerely believe that my writing this review does not constitute a conflict of interest, as I am not interested in him or his comedy.
I do appreciate comedy, very much so. What I don't appreciate is waiting at the Olive Garden for two plus hours alone.
Now I simply cry at their “work.” Not due to any sort of emotional attachment, but at the stupidity I harbor for having opened myself to this brand of comedy, if that's what you want to call it, ass.
The P! Company Megashow is October 17th at 8:00pm in The Texas Union Theater. The event is co-produced by the Texas Travesty and ColdTowne Theater. Also, visit Megan's blog.
