The MAD Show!
One of the many side projects the gang at MAD has been working on lately is a live stage production called… wait for it… “The MAD Show“. As I understand it, the show is a combination improve comedy and musical, co-created by the people behind MAD Magazine and the comedy group Second City.
This is not to be confused with the off-Broadway musical “The MAD show” from the 1960’s, which was written by MAD writer’s Stan Hart and Larry Siegel.
The show is now in “developmental production”, which I take to mean they are doing a trial run of shows to see how it’s coming along. These performances are happening at the Wheeler Opera House in Aspen CO in September. Wish I could go but it’s a long drive. If you leave in the area, check it out!
