It’s almost time for the 2013 WitOut Awards for Philadelphia Comedy! As we get closer to the show, we’ll be rolling out a series of posts to help you get more acquainted with this year’s nominees. Read all about ‘em, and then be sure to get your tickets for the big event on January 13th at World Cafe Live! The nominees for Best New Act are: Davenger Director: Cast: Hot Dish Director: Cast: Gathering talent from the improv, sketch, stand-up and theater worlds, The Flat Earth debuted in 2012 as Philly Improv Theater’s first house sketch team. Their sketch revue show had a five-night run at the Philly Fringe Festival, a two-night encore at the Shubin Theater, and received great praise from audience members they asked in the lobby afterwards. Director: Paul Triggiani Writers: Actors: American Breakfast debuted at Sketch Up or Shut Up in February 2012. Between then and now, they performed irregularly at the Theme Show and were invited to perform at ManiParty, at Camp Woods Plus and at the Shubin Theater. The name reflects their love of this country and its morning-specific food items. They are Sean Landis, Eric Steele, Peter Rambo and Nora Redman. Cast: Daring Daulton is a sketch duo who have been performing in Philadelphia since March of 2012. Both members have a background in film and screenwriting, drawing influences from filmmakers like the Coen brothers, PT Anderson and sketch shows like the Kids in the Hall and Mr. Show. As such, Daring Daulton’s largely character-driven sketches can best be identified by their dark subject matter, absurdist elements and meticulous dialogue. Cast: Description: MARTIN & LAWRENCE (Lexie Mountain and Ric Royer), AARON NEVINS (Tight Six), THE NEW DREAMZ (Rose Luardo and Andrew Jeffrey Wright), JP BOUDWIN (Camp Woods), ROSE LUARDO (Comedy Dreamz), JOEY DOUGHERTY (Joey Dougherty), ANDREW JEFFREY WRIGHT (Comedy Dreamz) Style: Variety Date: January 8 Time: 7:30pm (doors) 8pm (show) Admission: Donation Location: SPACE 1026 - 1026 Arch St., 2nd fl Contact: Facebook Event The Comic’s Comic posted this interview with David Letterman and highlights from his Kennedy Center Honors ceremony.
