Forget your 401 K plan. Forget your career. Forget your sense of self-worth… In fact, forget everything except that spurn opens next week for a LIMITED-ENGAGEMENT production at The Peoples Improv Theater! This all-economy themed show will "tickle your funny bone till it screams in agony." (Nylon Newsletter). All this with spurn‘s unique brand of “disgusting, horrifying, amusing” (TimeOut NY) comedy that will no doubt “leave the audience gasping for breath between guffaws” (Village Voice).
Performances will take place at The Peoples Improv Theater, 154 W. 29th Street (between 6th & 7th Aves; take the 1 train to 28th St). Our “wickedly funny theatre ensemble” (BlogChelsea) is back with more “hard-edged, envelope-pushing” (NY Theatre Experience) comedy for you. Running time is one hour. Tickets are only $12 for general admission, with beer and wine served in the lobby. For further information, please visit spurn-nyc.com or the PIT schedule page. For advance ticket sales, please visit brown paper tickets (fees apply).
In the meantime, get your fix by viewing any of the over 40 spurn video podcasts already online by subscribing through the iTunes Store or viewing us at Sony’s Crackle video site, YouTube, MySpace, Veoh and many, many others. Stay tuned, new episodes are uploaded regularly.

Hey all,
After tomorrow night's and Friday night's shows, spurn goes away for at least 6-8 months... hope you can come out and enjoy some generally R-rated, dark, bitter, critically-acclaimed sketch comedy!
"...a fresh batch of dark humor and sharp sarcasm intended to tickle your funny bone till it screams in agony.”
