Club Sensationzzz

Sam Tallent and Galloway Allbright

An Evening With Club Sensationzzz: The Talk Show ends next Friday, August 29 at the Bovine Metropolis ($10 / 10:15 p.m.). A total of 13 people have attended the last two shows and that is simply a shame. The talk show format is a perfect vehicle for the collaborative, inventive talents of Galloway Allbright and Sam, aka Club Sensationzzz. Their monologues, ad hoc "green screen" visuals delivered via colored marker on poster board, and guest interviews are always entertaining, and often brilliant.

This writer remains baffled by the insistence/refusal of many theater owners to not promote their product, i.e., their extended-run improv and sketch comedy shows. Marketing 101 says following the creation of any product the entrepreneur must then price it, place it in the marketplace, and, finally and most importantly, promote it. Promotion, the hard part, seems to be lost on the owners and the performers who also, clearly, have a stake in their success (they are all apparently too right-brained). "Build it and they will come" isn't a sound business model.

Regardless, bring a bunch of folks to see Club Sensationzzz next weekend. They never disappoint.

A Very Special Halloween

Don't know how we missed this one. A Very Special Halloween is a holiday film from the 2007 48 Hour Film Project (48HFP). Denver producer/director Will Kingston of BadScience Entertainment made the film at Base 2 Studios with members of the Bovine Metropolis Theater. It was originally screened in Denver at the Starz Filmcenter on August 8, 2007.

48HFP teams must base their films on one of 13 genres (ranging from buddy film to Sci-Fi) selected from a hat. Officials then randomly draw a character, prop and line of dialogue that each team must incorporate into their film. Assignments are made on a Friday night and film teams must write, shoot, edit and score a movie in the next 48 hours. A typical running time is between four and seven minutes.

The BadScience team was given the following required film elements:
  • genre: holiday
  • character: Kenny or Kendra Colter, tattoo artist
  • prop: a pie
  • line of dialogue: "I bet you think you're clever, huh?"
The original Club Sensationzzz (Sam, Galloway Allbright; Ryan Mattingly) and Convention? cast members, Kathleen Boland and Keith Rains, appear in the film.
