MAD Shows Off!

Thought this was interesting. This is an ad on Playbill.com looking for comedy performers for a new live show. For those that don’t know, there was a MAD live show Off-Broadway back in 1966, written by MAD writers Larry Siegel and Stan Hart, and the original cast included Linda Lavin and Jo Anne Worley. I have no clue who is behind this, what connection MAD really has to it (which could range from 100% to DC Entertainment only licensing out the MAD name ala the FOX TV show). I’ll have to ask the MAD staff about it.
