Disco Horses: A Sketch Revue is a night of sketch comedy that ranges from absurd existentialism to grounded thoughtful realism. Through a mixture of complex and inter-weaving ideas we take you on a journey through the world of “What ifs” in just sixty minutes. En route we poke holes in social conventions and present new perspectives on everyday life.
ABOUT THE STYLE
From two of the freshest minds of the new-sketch-era in the United States, comes a refreshing take on classic sketch comedy. Utilizing the classic Chicago style of relationship-based sketch comedy, Disco Horses allow for absurdist concepts to drive both the relationship of the actors on stage, as well as the audience in their seats. Through music, movement pieces, form-breaking ideas, and other techniques, Disco Horses deploy absurdist concepts to drive the relationship between actors and audience and create a questioning atmosphere that makes people wonder what might happen next.
