Last night I went to see
Harmon Leon's show at the Comedy Festival.
(Harmon Leon is the "infiltrative journalist" and media prankster who
infiltrated the
Scientology Celebrity Centre disguised as a German industriogothic rocker,
among other exploits).
The show was very enjoyable, taking the form of a visit to the Nine Circles
of Hell as represented in contemporary American life. Among the things he
recounted were his visits to institutions such as the Most Beautiful Baby
contest, ventriloquists' conventions and Christian Hardcore Punk concerts,
and empirical evidence of how easy it is for an obviously deranged person
to buy guns. I laughed a lot in this show; I highly recommend going to see
it. (It's on at 7pm from Tuesdays through to Sundays until April 22.)
