The Death Show

Improv
A very vivid and bright illustration of The Death Show cast. The background is a painted pink that varies in hue. The six cast members are gathered in a family style portrait. Ayne is wearing a maudlin dress with her long black hair not to be outmatched by her pale complexion with running mascara. Jerome clean-shaven with blonde hair stands in blue slacks, a pea coat, complete with tie, holding a single lilly. Brian is wearing glasses with beard. He is in a suit with knickers, green plaid. In his hands he is holding a head in a jar. That head is Nicole’s. How her head got in there, we are not sure. Greg is in shorts a striped t-shirt holding flowers with hairy arms. In the back holding an umbrella to cover them all is Justin, with a top hat that has its own scarf blowing in the wind. Standing like a spectre above all dressed completely in black.

Pittsburgh’s longest running death themed improv show.

Er, most likely the only too.

More of a celebration of life, than death itself.

Tha Deadies and their special guests take you on a journey to the other side.

Some fun facts:

  • Performed at Washington and Jefferson college for their “Philosophy of Death” class
  • Performed at Carnegie Mellon University many years as part of their Detour Comedy Festival
  • For one full year, they even had a weekly run at Steel City Improv

A monthly show is the usual cadence at various venues. Most recently at Arcade Comedy Theater.
