For the first time on stage, veteran New York writer/performers Ben Rimalower (Patti LuPone savant) and John Hill (unclear) join forces to blur the lines between sketch comedy and just general sketchiness. The hope is that Rimalower's beating an audience over the head will balance out Hill's obtuseness to create an evening far less painful than anything either one has created individually.


John Hill & Ben Rimalower TWO HAND JOB will be performed Sunday, December 10 and Monday, December 11. Both shows are at 9:00 PM at The Duplex (61 Christopher Street at Seventh Ave, New York, NY 10014). Tickets are $10 online (or $15 at the door) and can be purchased at www.BenRimalower.com. There is a two-drink minimum per person. You must be at least 21 years old to attend.
