For the past five decades, National Lampoon has pushed boundaries in the comedy universe. In honor of its 50th anniversary, National Lampoon, in keeping with its half-century-old legacy, today announces the creation of a reboot to its legendary off-Broadway musical sketch hit Lemmings, which helped launched the careers of John Belushi, Christopher Guest, Harold Ramis, Anne Beatts, and more. Lemmings: 21st Century is written by Larson Grant Winner, Andrew Farmer, with a score written by downtown music-comedy guru Henry Koperski, and directed by red-hot theater artist Annie Tippe.

National Lampoon's Kevin Frakes and Raj B. Singh announced today that prolific producer and head of eshapTV, Evan Shapiro, has been named the company's President. In the newly created role, Shapiro will oversee all development, acquisitions, and production on television, digital and audio content for the entertainment company.

In an energetic salute to the gifted comedy of the late John Belushi and his partner in mischief, Dan Aykroyd, Harris Center/Three Stages proudly presents The Official Blues Brothers Revue for one performance only. The Chicago Sun-Times praises the Revue enthusiastically, "Infectious and unbridled energy.... it blows the roof off!'
