The Kids in the Hall

Ryman Auditorium

May 21, 2008

Add Review/Comment

Discovered by Lorne Michaels, creator of Saturday Night Live, The Kids in the Hall -- Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson -- exploded into the American consciousness when their half-hour sketch comedy show debuted on cable’s HBO in 1989. The troupe’s distinctly edgy humor broke new ground with their characterizations of secretaries, prostitutes, gays, drug users, and oddball creations like the half human Chicken Lady, the vengeful "head crusher" and the chauvinist Cabbage Head. Critical acclaim, Emmy and Ace nominations, and a legion of extremely dedicated fans quickly followed the debut. The show itself ended in 1995, but lived on in constant re-runs on cable’s Comedy Central, offering new fans the opportunity to fall under the "hilariously warped" (Entertainment Weekly) spell of the Kids’ spin on life, love, lust, middle-class values, and the dark corners of suburbia.

    "Vince was great"

    This was the best show I have ever had the pleasure to attend. The music was awesome and Vince was so down to earth and humble. He had the best group of players with him. It was just great!

    I have a lot of respect for Eddie Izzard, his insights and comedy are fun and not the typical stand up. He is a brave guy. Last night in Nashville he was mediocre. He is adorable to look at, but he seemed to resent the fact he was there, and it was clear he was laughing at us. I also was surprised at how loyal his audience was to him thru the whole thing. I would like to see him in NYC, bet he brings his A game there. Collapse
