Before we start, we wanted to thank Jake Mattera, Alex Pearlman, The Wire Mothers, Cynthia Marie, Until Pluto and House of Solitude for an awesome and entertaining night of sketch as part of our Philly Sketchfest Presents December showcase last Friday. Please make sure to check out all these wonderful groups on social media to be updated on all their upcoming shows and video releases. In fact, our friends in House of Solitude are performing a set of sketch as part of this week’s only sketch show on December 23rd – Secret Pants’ 6th Annual Holiday Variety Show Spectacular at Johnny Brenda’s entitled, ‘Should I Sleigh Or Should I Go’ – and next week as part of Philly Sketchfest Presents, ‘Sketch Hangover’, a sketch comedy revue featuring 17 sketch groups performing their first sketches of the New Year 2016 on January 1st. But this week, it’s all about Secret Pants and their annual holiday variety show…
