Wham City Comedy return to PhilaMOCA!
w/ Lorelei Ramirez
Doors 7:30, Show 8:00
$10 advance, $12 doorWham City is a comedy & video collective based in Baltimore known for their bizarre viral videos and absurdist presentational performances. We have created a series of infomercials for Adult Swim including Unedited Footage of a Bear, Live Forever As You Are Now W/ Alan Resnick, Commencement Speech, and most recently This House Has People In It.
We tour once a year so please come and see us because we are doing very, very badly. We are slowly being crushed beneath a behemoth of responsibilities that we can’t even barely comprehend, while our mental and emotional stability hangs by a thread all so that we can “fulfill our dreams”–we dont even have dreams anymore because we don’t sleep, we just lay awake at night thinking about email. We just thought it would be better than this. We thought comedy would save us, but oh god we fucked up so so bad. We suck and we hate ourselves. Please please please give us money–WE ARE DYING.“Then and now, their shows are a mix of standup, bizarre improv, and carefully scripted skits, punctuated with bits of digital video…every performance is different and every performance has a zeitgeisty energy.”- Baltimore Magazine
“Comedy for the surveillance and voyeuristic social media age”- The Creators Project
Lorelei Ramirez is an artist, comedian, and writer residing in New York where she is attempting to do everything she can before I dies because dying is scary and who will see through these eyes when she’s done? An ill tempered demon? She hosts a Bi-weekly show at Tandem bar in Bushwick called Do Something Variety Show, and also host a show at Over The Eight called “I’m Afraid Of Dying”.
