The Connecticut Cabaret Theatre presents Connecticut Premiere of Rowan & Martin's Laugh In, Based on the Sketch Comedy Television Program, By Ed Friendly and George Schlatter, Directed by Kris McMurray, September 18th thru October 24th, 2015.

"Sock it to Me!" this fast paced stage adaption of the uniquely famous television variety show is a barrage of jokes, one-liners, running skits, musical numbers as well as making fun of social and political issues of the late 1960's. You can bet your sweet bippy that the Connecticut Cabaret Theatre in Berlin is bursting the seams of its mod psychedelic mini-skirts and polishing its granny sun glasses, preparing to take off into la-la land. Put on your white go-go boots and run back in time to a more gentle and groovier era as "Rowan and Martin's Laugh In" celebrates nostalgia with a capital N.

Weekends until Saturday, October 24, Kris McMurray will produce and direct all those great television sketches that tickled your funny bone back in the late 1960's and early 1970's. Ed Friendly and George Schlatter have assembled all the principals we grew to love, with Chris Brooks as Dan Rowan, James J. Moran as Dick Martin and Meagan Bomar as Goldie.

Grab your rubber chicken, practice dancing the swim and the pony, tell a few knock-knock jokes and let the Fickle Finger of Fate lead you right to the CT Cabaret's door. With quick one liners about everything from goats and lizards to politics, visits on a park bench with the feisty little old lady Ruth Buzzi, a romp with "Here Comes de Judge" and a fast travel through the tulips with Tiny Tim, this

energetic cast of seventeen is eager to entertain
Come play with Abby Brooks, Sue Emond, Nancy Ferenc, Linda Kelly, Maria Pompile, Bobby Schultz, Dave Wall, Will Dayton, Russell Fish, Barbara Horan, George Lombardo, Grace Rizuto, Carleigh Schultz and Brianna Zuk as they recreate the comedy show, slamming windows in the joke wall all way before "Saturday Night Live" captured the spotlight.
