From: Photo Flash: DUDLEY: RIGGED FOR LAUGHTER Plays the History Theatre

History Theatre and the Brave New Workshop have teamed up to tell the outrageous life story of Dudley Riggs, a fourth-generation circus kid who founded the Brave New Workshop in 1958. Told in the fast-paced, ensemble-driven, sketch comedy style of the Brave New Workshop, Dudley: Rigged for Laughter! pays tribute to the man and the remarkable legacy of comedy he built starting with a storefront, some newspapers, and a lot of pluck.
