BROAD COMEDY Comes To The Assembly At George Street, 8/7-29

Fringe Management and Broadhouse Productions present BROAD COMEDY at Assemby at George Street. On August 7th-12th, 17th-19th, and 23rd-26th tickets will cost £12.00. On August 13th-15th, 20th-22nd, and 27th-29th tickets will cost £14.00.

After massive successes in Boston, New York City and LA, the acclaimed sketch comedy show and winner of the Vancouver Fringe Festival, BROAD COMEDY is making its Edinburgh Fringe debut this August.

"The Broads" of BROAD COMEDY are six irreverent and hilarious, multi- talented women who have been called "The Dixie Chicks of American sketch comedy," known for high-energy musical numbers, left-wing politics, women's issues, and X-rated shenanigans about, well, women's shenanigans, if you know what we mean. The show has been described in the press as "pee-in-your-pants-roll-in-the-aisles funny," with numbers like "The United States Extreme Right-Wing Cheerleading Squad" and the memorable teen abstinence movement lampoon, "Saving My Hymen For Jesus."

BROAD COMEDY is the brainchild of multi-hyphenated actress-writer- director Katie Goodman and her husband, playwright and actor Soren Kisiel. Katie, daughter of nationally syndicated columnist Ellen Goodman, is also an Oprah Magazine contributor, a Keynote Speaker, workshop facilitator, creativity consultant and author of the book Improvisation For The Spirit: Live A More Creative, Spontaneous and Courageous Life Using the Tools of Improv Comedy.

Goodman was recently featured on Behind the Green Room Door, a new Showtime series that features candid talk with comedians, hosted and executive produced by comedian Paul Provenza (The Aristocrats).
