Party: Spartacus Fartacus

Party: Spartacus Fartacus

Let's get historical!

The pageant of history is a rich tapestry of both people and events, a journey from the then to the now. It's importance cannot be discounted, for those who fail to acknowledge and learn from the mistakes of history shall be forever doomed to repeat them. Or some shit like that...

Spartacus Fartacus is Brad McMurran, Sean Devereux, and Ed Carden. 3 men seeking to bring history to life in the form of original improvised entertainment! It starts with the audience suggestion of a historical event or figure, and then explodes great trek through the ages with only Brad, Ed, and Sean's knowledge of history (or at least what they can actually remember) as the guide. It's sort of like the History Channel except without all the Pawn Shops and trucks driving across ice!

It's like Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure... but not as smart.

The Pushers are Virginia's premiere sketch and improv comedy group. For nearly ten years they have thrilled (and shocked) audiences with their wild antics both on and off stage. The group puts on a racy, high-octane, energetic show that is guaranteed to have audiences howling with laughter. This fall they opened their own theater, The Push Comedy Theater, located in the new Norfolk Arts District.

In 2013 The Pushers' Off-Broadway musical Cuff Me: The Unauthorized Fifty Shades of Grey Musical Parody debuted in New York City. It ran for over a year in both New York and Chicago. A third production is currently touring the country.

The Pushers have appeared at both The Charleston Comedy Festival and The North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival. In New York, they have performed at The People's Improv Theater, The Upright Citizen's Brigade and at The Kraine Theater in New York's East Village.

Here in Hampton Roads the group have performed most notably at The Jewish Mother, The NorVa and The Virginia Beach Funnybone.
