AATC and CATS Presents "TELEMONGOL"
SKETCH COMEDY AT ITS FINEST!
February 16th and 17th, 2007, at 7:00 and 10:00 p.m. and February 18th at 2:00 p.m.
Written as a collaborative piece between Lodestone Theater, and three of the nation's most renowned Asian American Comedy Troupes, Cold Tofu, 18 Mighty Mountain Warriors and OPM, TeleMongol uses the sketch comedy format to tell the story of AHOLE-TV (Asia Home of Language Entertainment), a fictional cable network with a mission to create programming by and for the Asian Pacific American community. The show takes a satirical look at both the behind-the-scenes politicking at the station and the programs chosen to air. Skewering everything from the issues faced by ethnic media to well-known icons like American Idol reject William Hung and North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il, TeleMongol promises to be an irreverent look at contemporary Asian American pop culture.
Performed by OPM Comedy, 18 Mighty Mountain Warriors And Cold Tofu in association with Theatre on San Pedro Square.
"...Riotous...hilarious...tackles every Asian trope and then some...Director Henry Chan and his fearless cast keep the energy high and the laughs plentiful. Fans of Comedy Central and 'Borat'. . . will roar at such wicked comic comment." --Los Angeles Times
*Advisory: The show contains strong language and sexual content.
