2006 marked the birth of Asiansploitation’s first sketch revue. Since then, their flourishing fan base has seen this troupe sweat it out to deliver showcase after showcase of original comedic gems. As 2012 comes to a close, there’s no infamous 7-year itch for this group. In fact, their 8th revue in November will show how these troupe members are smitten with each other all over again.
Asiansploitation will spice it up by rolling out the red carpet for an extraordinary celebration: an awards show honouring one another. Ah yes, this will be an evening of joking, evoking and stroking (of the egos, that is). Come along for the ride.
Join NAAAP Toronto at a special opening night tribute to the little sketch troupe that could. As they look back and relive some of their most memorable onstage moments, the best way to share your applause is by coming out and laughing at them! Old and new audiences alike will delight in sketches such as Who’s Your Foster Daddy?, Gitmo Small Talk, I’ll Be White for You, Please Your Grandma and James on Weed.
Faces you may have missed are back in the fold. It will likely be a long wait to see these crazy eight share the same stage again. Brace yourself for a bring the house down reunion of something extra-special.
A Greatest Hits Compilation that’s not to be missed!!
