Five Cornered Thinking

First performed at The New York Comedy Club. September 8-16, 2000.

A collection of one-act plays written, directed and performed entirely by the Porch Room. The highly successful show combined the elements of comedy, music, dance and the bizarre to delight audiences at Manhattan’s famous New York Comedy Club!

No rational theater troupe would attempt to trot corpses, drugs, mannequins, trombones, vampires and word games on stage under the guise of comedy, drama and dance.

Rationality is not our selling point.
