THEATER REVIEW: MR. SHOW LIVE-- HOORAY FOR AMERICA TOUR * * * * (4 stars out of 4).
External link:

If you liked the too-short-lived HBO show "Mr. Show", you'll like the stage show every bit as much. If you aren't familiar with the show, then definitely get the DVD, and also try to catch the live show in your area.

I don't want to give anything away, but the basic idea is that GloboChem buys a presidential election, and this loosely ties together a bunch of mostly new scenes, and a couple of favorite old scenes from the television show. The show is hilarious and brilliant and wonderful, and I can't recommend it enough, though I should also warn that it often treads--and some might say crosses--the line when it comes to being tasteful.

But don't just take my word for it. I saw the show with Jessica D. who also loved the show, and afterwards we saw Saturday Night Live's Chris Parnell outside, and I briefly introduced myself, and we spoke to him for a couple minutes. He had just seen the show, and he also claims to have liked it very much.
