"Yule Laugh"

TULSA, OK – If the holiday blues are getting you down, book an appointment with Brookside’s Physicians of Fun, The Comedy Clinic – Tulsa’s Comedy Troupe, on December 6th, 2003, as they perform an all new show called “Yule Laugh” at Tulsa's finest Martini Lounge and Champagne Bar, The Suede, 3340 S. Peoria Ave. Showtime is 7:30.

These Medics of Madness will showcase decades of theater and comedy experience in their live show, which has been described as Saturday Night Live meets Whose Line is it Anyway. These hilarious ORIGINAL sketches will be followed by their hysterical improv games, which include audience participation. The Comedy Clinic gives fans a local flavor in their sketch comedy, the likes of which won't be seen on television or anywhere else in Tulsa! This gang of Comedy Doctors - playing in their second consecutive season at The Suede - are no strangers to the comedy and entertainment scene in Green Country. The Comedy Clinic will star local improv veterans and Clinic co-founders Ben Beckham, Maria Swindell and Jeff Turner. Antoine Wilson also stars with this trio.

Beckham, the Clinic director, has 17 years of improv, writing and directing experience in the Tulsa area. He co-founded two other local comedy troupes before establishing the Comedy Clinic last year with Swindell and Turner and has collaborated with cast mates for a combined 24 years.

The Comedy Clinic also welcomes featured player and the voice of the Comedy Clinic, Marty Swindell. In addition, the Clinic welcomes musical duo Todd Boaz and Russ Becker of The Unexpected who will keep audiences in stitches with their original, Weird Al-esque stylings.
