Dynasty Typewriter 9/5/18 Dynasty Typewriter 9/5/18

Fictional Roast, Raised By TV, Labour Day Party, + More!

A WEEKLY RECAP OF SOME OF OUR FAVOURITE MOMENTS FROM DYNASTY TYPEWRITER, AS CAPTURED ON INSTAGRAM @DYNASTYTYPEWRITER.

We had a great time on Saturday night hosting our new stand-up show Dynasty Tonight! and using TECHNOLOGY to take the audience and our performers on some adventures to magical places, courtesy of our fancy new projector.

📺 Raised By TV delivered enough TV nostalgia to turn anyone from couch potato to hot potato. Also huge thanks to Jon Gabrus for wearing those pajamas. 🇺🇸

🔥Harry Potter got (fictional) Roasted and we loved it! Also, Jamie got his first taste of the enthusiasm of Potterheads... and his appetite is whetted. After a quick Google, he's been diagnosed a Hufflepuff! And in other happily combative news, Langston Kerman won the Boast Rattle! Solid gold sweetie!

We learned that sometimes magical places can quickly turn into fiery hellscapes. Example: an audience member wanted to be beside a beautiful (dormant) volcano in tropical Bali... Jamie accidentally pulled up a terrifying montage of exploding volcanos, and Helen Hong performed in front of it like she was headlining the apocalypse.

In other happily combative news, Langston Kerman won the Boast Rattle! Solid gold sweetie!

Monday we got to celebrate Labor Day with the theater's first potluck c/o The Voyager Institute & Vidiot's annual 5 Minute Game, a tradition we hope will come back year after year because it was seriously the most fun ever.

Sasheer Zamata, Ken Marino, Conan O'Brien, and more!

A WEEKLY RECAP OF SOME OF OUR FAVOURITE MOMENTS FROM DYNASTY TYPEWRITER, AS CAPTURED ON INSTAGRAM @DYNASTYTYPEWRITER.

👑Sasheer Zamata Party Time was the fire emoji (🔥.) The theater was filled with great vibes, great comedy, great music, and basically we all just left feeling 100 x cooler by association. See the full photo album here.

📓Hollywood Handbook was SOLD OUT... but our marquee didn't state it clearly, which resulted in one of our own, the infamous Francis Cronin, being pulled up on stage and lightly bullied. He handled it like a champ. The marquee was fixed. And THAT'S the Dynasty Difference.

🎹👻Haunting Renditions gave us an evening of delights, eerily beautiful takes on some truly bad songs. And the ultimate spooky moment was Ken Marino's duet performance of Baby Grand with... himself. He didn't miss a note ya'll!

💛Team Coco made us COO-COO with an insanely wonderful Up & Up featuring a really promising up and comer named CONAN O'BRIEN! He did 10 minutes of hilarious, relaxed, amazing comedy that only reinforced what a gem he is.

THE DYNASTY RECAP

Whewf! Move over royal wedding, 'cause the Dynasty had a TRULY regal week! We finally got to announce that beginning in June, we will be the new kingdom for Harmontown! Every Monday night just got a lot less Monday-feeling and a lot more wonderful! Oh, and guess what? Tig Notaro did a drop-in set on Greg Barris's amazing Heart of Darkness show. She brought with her a winning combo of smiles and Adele moments. Wish you were there hun! Matt Braunger & Friends should be called Matt Braunger & Other Brilliants because his show was burstin' with goodness. On Friday we bowed down to the queen herself (CELINE!) in the truly amazing performance of Titanique. Celine Dion, as played by the impossibly talented Marla Mindelle, told her version of the story of the Titanic flanked by an attractive cast of quadruple threats. It was a night we'll never let go of. On Saturday, royalty made yet another appearance in the totally sold-out Comedian's Cinema Club presentation of The Princess Bride. The theater was packed and the cast was nuts. (The good kind of nuts! Like cashews!) And Sunday, a king of the art of comedy, Brent Forrester (who possesses both a mind and a heart of sustainably sourced gold) gave us a whirlwind of laughter and priceless information in the first ever Comedy Knowledge Drop. If real school was this fun, we'd all be like, doctor-lawyer-entomologists.
