As the self-proclaimed "world's only sketch comedy group," Last Call Cleveland will save Cleveland - no hyperbole - through laughter as it brings its hilarious brand of sketch comedy to PlayhouseSquare's 14th Street Theatre for the first time. Over the course of PlayhouseSquare's 2010-2011 season, Last Call Cleveland will give eight performances, September 24 & 25; January 14, 15, 28 & 29; and April 1 & 2, each at 7:30 PM.

Comprised of the attention-starved quartet of Aaron McBride, Mark McKenzie, Mike Polk and Matt Zitelli, Last Call Cleveland gives performances with their signature brand of Saturday Night Live-like sketch comedy, taped sketches, songs, and audience interaction. As the troupe behind the widely-discussed Hastily Made Cleveland Tourism Video, Last Call Cleveland has also become internet sensations for their viral videos including Honest R&B Song, One Semester of Spanish Love Song, and the Break.com original series Man In The Box, to name just a few.

Last Call Cleveland has toured throughout the country, playing New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago and more while hitting numerous comedy festivals and receiving glowing reviews such as: "Crowd-pleasers...pricelessly savage" (The Chicago Tribune), "Last Call Cleveland proved that good things can come out of Cleveland" (Punchline Magazine), and "Add up the songs, the videos and their almost supernatural timing and it's easy to see why Last Call Cleveland took the top prize at last year's Toronto Sketch Comedy Festival" (eyeweekly.com).
