It all started for a friend... Comedians Dan Goodman and JoAnna Ross never thought they'd be producing a comedy and pole dancing show. Dan and JoAnna had just wrapped up Dan's short film Skinja about a stripper by night, ninja by later that night, when a close friend was diagnosed with breast cancer. As two comics who'd just worked on a film with a bunch of pole dancers, JoAnna came up with the crazy idea to take the two groups of performers and use them to raise money for a good cause. The night was such a success, that they kept it going as a normal show, or as normal as SCHTICK A POLE IN IT gets. Eight years later (and their friend kicking cancer's a**) they are expanding to more dates as they continue to wow audiences with their one-of-a-kind events.
