Nashville Comedy Theater‘s Pre Thanksgiving Improv Weekend & Iron Songwriter Round 3 is this Friday & Saturday (Nov. 18th & 19th). The last semi-final round of “Iron Songwriter” includes a performance from Nashville-based comedian / podcaster / musician / awesome person Mark Anundson.
Whether you remember Mark as the host of WRVU’s “Get Up, Stand Up” or know him as half of the music group BIZRQ or as the FUN-gineer for sketch comedy podcast “The Mangy Dog Radio Hour Whoop Dee Doo” or one third of the cast of “Happy Birthday Gary” or the host of “Happy For Apathy” or as a frequent performer at Zanies or as a close, personal friend of The Kenny Rogers.. you know Mr. Anundson is a funny, funny man with musical improvisation skills sharp enough that other musical improvisors should probably just quit whatever it is they’re doing and start improvising songs about how great Mark Anundson is at improvising songs.
Five other people who are decidedly NOT Mark Anundson will also be there participating in Saturday’s Iron Songwriter Competition. They’ll be given 45 minutes to write and perform a new song based on the audience’s suggestion. Saturday’s winner earns a spot in the final round in December and they will want YOUR vote to bring them forward.
All shows start at 8pm, Tickets are $10 and can be purchased right now online at NashvilleComedyTheater.com, or at the door with cash or check. Questions? Call Nashville Comedy Theater at 615-544-5386.
