TULSA, OK - Tulsa's Comedy Troupe - The Comedy Clinic, continues its 2004 season on March 20th, at Tulsa's finest Martini Lounge and Champagne Bar, The Suede, 3340 S. Peoria Ave. as they perform their all new show "In Like A Lion, Out Like A Laugh!" 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. Their 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 in 2002 with Swindell and Turner and has collaborated with cast mates for a combined 24 years.

The Clinic will be making their 11th appearance at the Suede and have performed all over Green Country in the past six months. In addition to causing big laughs on Brookside, they have made a big splash in Bartlesville packing the house in both November and January.

"We've been very fortunate," said Beckham. "The Suede is a great venue. It's our home and it's in the best part of town for fun. And Bartlesville really has welcomed us with open arms, we'll return there in May."

Turner said convenience is not the only reason why people flock to the Suede for their shows. "The Suede is the greatest night spot in town, and since we're kind of funny, too, it makes for a great night out."
