Annie and Lena Have a Talk Show
Annie and Lena are bringing a wild night of all the talk show hits: Celebrities (played by us), Musical Guests (also us), and, most likely, some classic Annie and Lena sketches (played by us). Come with the duo as they skewer the highs and lows of showbiz through sketch, improv, characters and, of course, musical numbers they wish they had backup dancer budgets for. You think you’ve seen talk shows before, but not like this.
