THE SKINNY
Harmon Leon in Obey McGonagall
William Topaz McGonagall (1823-1902) is considered the worst poet in Scottish history. McGonagall was noted as being so giftedly bad - he unwittingly backed into genius. American comedian Harmon Leon draws uncanny comparisons to his own career in the celebration of heroic failure, standing up for the underdog, and, of course, all things McGonagall.
Remember: Obey McGonagall!
"A comedy force to be reckoned with." *****Edinburgh List
"Leon takes a risk with his comedy and audiences should too." **** Adelaide Advertiser

Colin Mahan IN Preview: The Movie
This summer, in a world where it's this time, evil MegaCorp CEO Michael Douglas is re-purposing proper-tainments under the MegaCorp umbrella into various de-cycled re-contented excre-bitions. The resultant long movie trailer can only be stopped by a mysterious ghost-in-the-machine barely acted by Jean Claude Van Damme.
Basically, it's Colin doing one long movie trailer parody.
BIO: Harmon Leon is the author of 6 books. He's appeared on the Howard Stern Show, Last Call with Carson Daly, Penn & Teller's Bullshit, and Spike TV's 1000 Ways to Die. He's performed at the Montreal, Edinburgh, Vancouver, and Melbourne Comedy Festivals.
BIO: Colin Mahan has performed on MTV, Comedy Central, VH1, Spike TV and other channels in the DirectTV mid-level bundle. He's appeared in The Man Show and several shelved sketch comedy pilots. He's performed in SF Sketchfest, the Vancouver Comedy Festival, and in his car while waiting at the toll plaza.
