As part of our slate of over twenty performances in this year’s Philly Fringe Festival we are very excited to include a Fringe edition of Sketch Buffet: A Sketch Comedy Showcase! In addition to acts already booked, we have some time saved for public submissions! 

We are particularly looking for video sketches and character monologues (though if you want to submit to do an in person sketch or two you can). Character monologues can be in person or pre-recorded. The ability to include video sketches and pre-recorded performances means this opportunity is open to performers from outside the Philadelphia region!

You can use the below form to submit your act. Please note that if we are not familiar with your work we may request a full script before making our decision. All acts will be paid a minimum of $20.

The Prime Subjective: TNG S07E19 & S06E14

We’re back with some classic trek episodes! In this episode of The Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman Hinners and Michael Henley are joined by Bev, Philadelphia’s (Drag) Queen of Comedy. In this episode they discuss two classic episodes of Next Generation: Genesis and Face of the Enemy. Their wide ranging discussion runs the gamut of wig sizes and ill fitting jumpsuits to wondering why the captain needs to go find an erstwhile photon torpedo.

Lower Decks S05E09 & 10

It’s time for one last trip through the Lower Decks! In this huge momentous episode of The Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman-Hinners and Michael Henley go for one last ride on the Cerritos as we discuss Lower Decks Season 5 Episode 9 – “Fissure Quest”, and Lower Decks Season 5 Episode 10 (and series finale!) – “The New Next Generation.” We discuss Bashir/Garak, multiverses, unexpected guest stars, and ultimately close the book on Lower Decks and determine the exact flavor of its delightful, nutty legacy. Enjoy!

Star Trek: Section 31

It’s time for a Star Trek movie event! In this episode of The Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coelman Hinners and Michael Henley take a break from the end of Lower Decks to discuss Section 31, the new Paramount Plus original Star Trek movie starring Michelle Yeoh. In this episode we discuss this would-be TV series turned into a movie…featuring Emperor Georgiou, Quasi, Zeph…and Rachel Garrett? It’s not quite a TV pilot, not quite a feature film, but it is definitely a fun discussion regarding this divisive latest entry in the Trek family.

Lower Decks S05E07 & E08

In this episode of The Prime Subjective, the gang explores more of Lower Decks Season 5, by discussing Episode 7, “Fully Dilated” and Episode 8, “Upper Decks.” Join Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman-Hinners and Michael Henley as they discuss flute lessons, Data’s head, Halloween, how one of these titles differ from an unfortunate toilet habit, and more!

Lower Decks S05E05 & E06

In this episode of The Prime Subjective, the gang explores the halfway point of Lower Decks Season 5, by discussing Episode 5, “Starbase 80?!” and Episode 6, “Of Gods and Angles.” Join Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman-Hinners and Michael Henley as they discuss special guest stars, weird space stations, orbs, cubes, orbs vs. cubes, cubes vs. orbs, and more!

Lower Decks S05E03 & E04

In this episode of The Prime Subjective, the gang (Mike Henley, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman-Hinners) discuss the next two episodes of Star Trek: Lower Decks (“The Best Exotic Nanite Hotel” S5E3, and “A Farewell to Farms” S5E4). Expect discussions of Apocalypse Now, old film writers, same-sex relationships as they appear on Trek, Klingons, honor, bird jokes, Paul F. Tompkins, and more!
