“Do You Believe in Madness?” begins and ends with a series of quick one-liners and blackouts – think “Laugh In” – while the middle is filled with a fast moving barrage of jokes, running skits, improv and silly songs. 
This year’s multi-talented cast – Mary Catherine Curran, Sarah Dell’Amico, Andrew Knox, Asia Martin, Jordan Savusa and Adam Schreck – kept me laughing throughout the show.
Highlights:
- There’s a bird in the house
- There’s a human in the house
- The Brexit game show
- The ukulele class which features a 60-year old lady trying to seduce the instructor with her fingering style, a lei-wearing geek who found himself in Hawaii and continually corrects the Hawaiian instructor’s pronunciation of ukulele
- The class test/charades - a cast member asks for the name of a movie, a song, etc. A student asks another for the answer to #13, then has to guess the answers they act out.
