Give My Heart A Chubby

So I guess while we had 2 men dominate in the stand-up category, the ladies are racking it up in the improv/sketch category in our Salute to Comedy... I'm giving it a title... gimmicks! Alright, continuing our "Salute to Comedy", we go now to the first ever sketch show I ever saw entitled, "Two Girls for Five Bucks".

Written and performed by Cathleen Carr and Daiva Deupree, 2gf5b is a 2 woman, sketch comedy, burlesque show. They feature real life stories about their love and sex lives and sketches including devilishly outrageous characters and scenarios. They are a comedy giant, their talent is exquisite, and their newest off-broadway show, Two Girls For Five Bucks, and The Ten Dollar Heartbreakers will hopefully be as devious, raunchy, and wildly classy as the last show. Here is a clip of a sketch they performed at Sketchubator:





Their new show opens... well today, March 11 and runs until March 28th. Their venue is the lovely Ars Nova in New York City. If you live in the NYC area, GO SEE THIS SHOW. If you DON'T live in the area, get on a Bolt or Mega bus (avoid getting blown up by a Fung Wah), go down for the day, or make a little vaca out of it, and GO SEE THIS SHOW. Trust me, you cannot be disappointed... unless you're Born Again... something tells me Born Agains wouldn't appreciate this.

I'll leave you with a little preview of their new show, enjoy:
