Howdy folks,

We’ve got a special show coming up this Friday at Petra’s Piano Bar in Plaza-Midwood this Friday. You should come out and see it. It has things as well as stuff. Mostly it has us, and at the end of the day, that is what is important.

Hello there, weblog reader. I thought you would find this amusing. I know I did. I LOL’d, out loud.

Since we’re going to be at the Mill for a while, they have nicely decided to put up a custom drink menu for our shows, the names of which have all been taken from past sketches. Bonus points* for guessing their sketch of origin.

NOTE: Bonus points not redeemable for anything. Ever.

Fort Mill. Place of legend, a land of mist and shadow where anything could and probably will happen. Every year thousands of people vanish there without a trace. Also, they have the Peach Stand, so that’s kind of nice. And now they’ll have Robot Johnson.

We’re going to be doing a few shows in the near future, with the first one on 9/9/10 @ 8pm at the Comedy Zone (w/i Madisons on the Corner). Yes, this is in fact the area near Tega Cay. Have you never HEARD of Tega Cay? Well that’s fucking unfortunate, because it’s the place where only the most gangsta of people live. You can’t even get in there unless the pennies in your loafers are shine and the head facing outwards. You will get your ass shot and thrown back out to the dregs of Knightsbridge if you don’t come prepared.

We sure as hell look forward to seeing you and whatever other people you can convince to come out with you. It’s Fort Mill. Anyone who got our humor already moved out to San Francisco to be gay or Portland to be ironic. Or they got pregnant with like 8 babies and spend their days hating everyone else as they wait tables. Whichev.

I was going to come on here, promote our Back to School show this Saturday at CAST Theatre with all it’s new and wonderful content and just delight you with random marketing/shilling and I decided “Hey, why not put up some content instead?”

So here.

So, we’ve done lots of classy stuff over the years; Robot Johnson started Charlotte’s now famous Feed a Street Urchin charity banquet. We place our coats over all sorts of puddles whether they be mud, beer or urine. We practically invented the combination Beer Helmet / Opera Binoculars. Now, we do perhaps our classiest act of all.

We open up for Othello. That’s right, Othello, like the one you could have learned about in school but no, you had heard that the movie for Romeo and Juliet featured full-frontal nudity of some hot actors, even if they had like 70′s hair or whatever and you had to watch that one.

We’re working w/ Collaborative Arts Theatre (who is running the Charlotte Shakespeare Festival). Die hard followers of Robot Johnson (our significant others and lonely shut ins, mostly) will remember our work with them for Sitcoms Live! a few years back, for which we won an awesome Metrolina Theatre Association Award and a okay hand-job from an MTA judge. We don’t know for a fact that our work here will get us another award, but we can say without a doubt that we will probably get to the end of our show without wetting our pants. Bold statement? Perhaps, and difficult to pull off, but it’s no less than the awesome play Othello deserves.

We hold our bladders for you, Shakespeare. We hold our bladders for you.

Even though the show has many performances this week, we’ll be performing at two shows only. Thursday, 8/12 (we’re on at 6:30pm and Othello is on at 7:30pm) and Sunday, 8/15 (we’re on at 2:00pm and Othello is on at 3:00pm). Admission is free (donations are heartily accepted by Collaborative Arts Theatre, if you’re interested, though). Seating is first-come, first-serve. Show up early and have a great time, yo.

Full details on the show and the festival are available here.
