Spring is nearly upon us, and everyone's ready to get out and shake off that last bit of cabin fever. What better time to indulge in the fantastic? Remind yourself of how limitless the imagination can be with Shadowbox Live's vivacious and spirited new show, Fantasies!

Escape reality and enter a realm with no boundaries with Shadowbox Live's newest themed show Fantasies. Deliciously delusional original sketch comedy and rock 'n' roll prove that in Fantasies, anything is possible.

In no particular order, Fantasies sketches will include:

Are You Smarter Than a Fiff Grader? - South siders Puck and Misty Duck are back for another game show. This time they'll be matching their "wits" with Fifth Grader Patty Dorfmunder.

Emotional Baggage - When you marry someone, do you really know what you're getting into? Time to follow regulations and check your baggage at the door - all of your baggage.

Fly Me To The Moon - Class Clown, Colin, and Class Nerd, Annie have to pair up for an oral report about the moon landing. With one determined to get an A and the other determined to get attention, anything can happen.

Inside Man - Inside every man is an ongoing struggle between the heart and the libido with the brain trying to keep everything balanced. Take a peak into a male's inner dialogue.

Spazoids - The Battle for Blacklick Park - Everyone's favorite dweebs are back and in action. The Great Battle for Blacklick Park has begun and Kirby's got an eye out for revenge! Time for live action role playing butt-kicking!

The Fairy Godfather - It's time for the ball, but this time, there's no Fairy Godmother to help Cinderella. Instead, the Fairy Godfather shows up, and he'll make all Cinderella's dreams come true. Of course, someday, and that day may never come, he may call on her for a favor.

Ultimate Fable Championship - In the UFC, your favorite fairy tale characters duke it out! Tonight's match, newcomer Goldilocks takes on current champ, Snow White!
