SketchFest is bringing all the best local sketch comedy groups together for one hilarious month. More than 10 groups will put on 18 different performances throughout the month, along with comedy contests with cash prizes. Every weekend, there will be two shows per night, with two groups performing at every show. That math works out to an amazing variety of laughter.

Sondheim, along with writers Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart, combines plot elements from the comedies of ancient Roman playwright Plautus with the high-spirited antics of Vaudeville for a wild and witty farce set in the ancient city. In exchange for his freedom, a crafty slave sets out to woo a beautiful (but not too bright) courtesan for his young master. Bawdy puns, mistaken identities, and sly social commentary (not to mention Sondheim's classic songs) garnered this Broadway hit multiple Tony awards and a subsequent film adaptation starring Zero Mostel.

As in the poem, the titular party is thrown at the Manhattan apartment of Queenie and Burrs, a couple of showbiz types whose friends run the gamut from colorful to kinky to out-and-out sleazy. The music of Andrew Lippa further amplifies the eroticism and decadence of the tumultuous shindig.
