Piccolo Encore

Greetings Friends! We've got a comedy program we'd like to show you.

Nameless Numberhead is a hyperbolic comedy duo with over 400 years of experience. Comedians Maari Suorsa and Henry Riggs are as married as they are funny. Their show blends social satire with original music and beautiful absurdity. Using foot switches and petals, all of the show's DYI technical elements are run from stage. The duo has toured all over the country to colleges and festivals and have been featured on Funny or Die, San Francisco Sketchfest, NY Sketchfest, Cincinnati Fringe, Dallas Comedy Festival, TedX Charleston, and collaborated with Shovels & Rope on the band's recent film project. Charm City Comedy Project calls Nameless Numberhead "one of the most compelling sketch shows we've ever hosted." More at www.numberheadcomedy.com.

Comedy Marathon featuring Nameless Numberhead, Alchemy Comedy Theater Tourco, and Mystery Meat

Comedy Marathon featuring Nameless Numberhead, Alchemy Comedy Theater Tourco, and Mystery Meat

Alchemy Comedy Theater Tourco
The team from Alchemy Comedy Theater in Greenville, SC likes to start out slow. Beginning with a story based on suggestions from the audience, the veteran touring ensemble crafts a back-and-forth dialogue between two characters. As that conversation begins to change and develop, the group takes those ideas and then expands upon them until the performance erupts into a fast-paced production.

NAMELESS NUMBERHEAD
Nameless Numberhead is an off the wall comedy show from the charmingly demented minds of married couple Maari Suorsa and Henry Riggs. The duo explores human absurdities in the age of algorithms through over the top characters, dynamic physicality, original music, and a splash of surrealism. They have performed at festivals and colleges all over the country and have been featured on FunnyorDie, TedX, and the SF Sketchfest. Charm City Comedy Project calls Nameless Numberhead "one of the most compelling sketch shows we've ever hosted". And with over 400 years of experience, Nameless Numberhead has mastered the art of hyperbole.

MYSTERY MEAT
The dynamic duo of BLKPAPA (part-time rapper) and White Smoke (the world's greatest Spotify user) are prepared to bring you a healthy helping of hip-hop sketch comedy. It's a mystery what these two are grilling up, but this tasty half rap concert, half sketch comedy show is guaranteed to bring the hype. Come hungry. Leave satisfied.

Nameless Numberhead ft. Petty Couch & Very Hypnotic Soul Band

After a summer hiatus, Nameless Numberhead is back this month with a new show at Theatre 99. Joining them for a night of comedy and music will be the boys of The Petty Couch Podcast and a Very Hypnotic Soul Band trio.

Tickets are $8 in advanced, $10 at the door
Purchase tickets here: https://goo.gl/syPspq

NAMELESS NUMBERHEAD is Maari Suorsa and Henry Riggs, a character driven sketch comedy show about you and the weird routines and habits you exhibit everyday. Self identified as surveillance chic, Nameless Numberhead exposes our obsession with voyeurism of the mundane. www.numberheadcomedy.com

THE PETTY COUCH PODCAST is stand-up comics Hagan Ragland and Jon Antoine talking shit and being petty. The two hosts, with their sound guy Brandon Bair, interview local comedians, crack wise about local topics, and just hangout on air for an hour of target-destroying humor. https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-petty-couch-episode-7/id1175918736?i=1000386106778

VERY HYPNOTIC SOUL BAND is an alt R&B and hip hop group from Charleston, SC. Formed initially for Charleston Music Hall's Hi Harmony community concert in the wake of the tragedy at Emanuel AME Church, the band members came together less in a conscious desire to make music and more with the sense that this type of music was needed.

See the show that everyone is calling “Ooooo, haven’t seen them yet, but I’ve really been meaning to!” Even though the Charleston based comedy duo can be seen regularly at the monthly Rip City show, they are back at Theatre 99 for one night only that you won’t want to miss. Unless of course you do want to miss it, in which case, who cares. Live your life.
