Four Years and Still Not Famous!

Fri, Sep 30 - Fri, Oct 21
10pm

$10 at door or online

Back despite popular demand, nationally acclaimed sketch comedy team
Uphill Both Ways is home touting their Best of the Best skits in 4
YEARS & STILL NOT FAMOUS. Big Red Comedy Fest calls them "obscenely
witty." SF Weekly says "[It] put us in mind of the late, lamented
Kids in the Hall: strange, ironic, ridiculous, and very, very chortle-
worthy." Random patrons tell friends "Those are the sketchiest
comics I've ever seen!"

UBW combines sharp, original writing delivered with fast-paced,
physical, comedic timing-and they are uproarious and highly
energetic. Once you see them, you'll be a true San Franciscan-and be
a fan of going both ways! They've crammed their 31 funniest skits
into a hat (the hat's funny, too) and will let the audience randomly
choose 15 to perform-and you will want to come back and see the ones
you missed! 31 skits, 4 years of unfamousness and a hat.

4 YEARS runs Fridays @ 10pm, September 30 through October 21, 2005,
at the Dark Room Theater, 2263 Mission Street, b/t 18 & 19, SF. You
can purchase $10 tickets and find more information at
www.uphillbothways.com. Buy tickets early because we will sell out-
figuratively and literally.

4 YEARS features Colin Benoit, Jack Daniel, Ron Levi, and Dave McKew.
