Radio Happy Hour To Feature Franz Nicolay At (Le) Poisson Rouge 4/16

Radio Happy Hour, a live variety show featuring a made-for-radio murder mystery sitcom with guest stars, is at it again. They'll bring their hilarious murder mysteries to (Le) Poisson Rouge again on April 16th with special guest Franz Nicolay. The crew, featuring host Sam Osterhout, comedians Robin Reed and Matt Skibiak, and music by Rich Bologna, will get into another murder mystery filled with non-sense, farts, and awkward situations on April 16th. They'll be accompanied by guest interviews, a musical performance from Franz Nicolay with special guests, and the How Well Do You Know Yourself audience quiz. It's all happening on April 16th at (Le) Poisson Rouge.

Radio Happy Hour is a live variety show featuring an old-time radio comedy/drama and guest stars from the worlds of film, music, and letters. Hosted by Sam Osterhout, the show engages its guests in a wildly right-angled conversation that careens between interviews, stand-up comedy, musical performances, and trivia. At the center of it all is a short, old time radio comedy in which the guest stars as him or herself and is forced to help the Radio Happy Hour crew solve the crime. Audiences will see all of this--the interviews, the corny jokes, the guest performances, and the behind-the-scenes making of a radio drama--live every month, and podcasted online as well. Trust us, it will make more sense when you see it.

Drinking in the afternoon. Radio Drama. It's like the depression, but funnier.

Past guests include Norah Jones, Andrew WK, Cursive, David Bazan, Tapes 'n Tapes, The Hold Steady, Jolie Holland, Jesse Eisenberg, Michael Showalter, Eugene Mirman, and many others.
