NEW YORK, March 3 /PRNewswire/ -- What happens when you mix tabloids +
 sketch comedy? S.M.U.T (Scandalous Mayhem Under Tinseltown) announces its
 red carpet opening night at Comix, Thursday, March 6th, 2008 in an
 unlimited engagement.
 
     Let's face it, celebrity scandal is EVERYWHERE and we're
 hooked-celebrity pregnancies, meltdowns, rehab visits, Hollywood DUIs and
 of course the never ending public fascination to fuel the drama. Previewed
 in December to sold out audiences at Comix, S.M.U.T is a first of its kind
 parody based on celebrity culture that provides the same fix of Hollywood
 gossip in theatre form, with a twist.
 
     S.M.U.T was produced by Ei8ht 22 Productions 

and written by a group of seven NYC twenty and thirty somethings
 obsessed with celebrity culture. The production follows a fast-paced comedy
 sketch style similar to that of Saturday Night Live and each week, the team
 meets to update the show with the very latest developments in the tabloids
 and must-see material. The show features a hugely talented cast including
 Lorraine Bracco's niece Lindsay Bracco, playing the roles of all the usual
 suspects.
 
     The 25 sketches that makeup the show include skits such as: Sex Ed with
 Paris and Nicole, A Moment with the Cruises, Perez Hilton: Gateway to Hell,
 On The Playground-celebrity offspring sharing the woes of having famous
 parents, to name just a few. Musical numbers include "I Think I'm A Clone
 Now", "Oops I f'd Up Again" and "Maternity World".
 
     "I wanted to lure generation Y back to theatre again and what better
 way than through their everyday obsession," explained Steve Shaw, director.
 Writer/Producer Andrea Bertola conceived the idea for the show and
 explained, "We're all obsessed with the unraveling of Hollywood lives! We
 all wake up in the morning and log onto Perez Hilton everyday... so we
 decided to have a little fun and take our obsession to another level."
 
     Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 at the door (plus a 2 drink minimum
 purchase) and can be purchased online at www.comixny.com or by calling 212-
 524-2500. Show times are as follows:
 
     3/6, 3/19, 4/10, 5/1, 5/22 at 8pm. Further dates to be announced.
