The Big Bang

Manhattan Comedy Collective is bringing smut and low comedy back to where it belongs â Times Square!

Saturday nights in May will be livelier than ever with the premiere of all new edition of the sketch comedy show, âRick Murphy is in Asshole,â new comedy songs by Robin Gelfenbien and a performance by New Yorkâs juiciest burlesque troupe â The Peach Tartes.

Jester Journal called the first edition of RICK MURPHY IS AN ASSHOLE âhighly entertaining ... shows off a performer who probably has a lot of great work left in him.â

Starring Brooklyn comedian Rick Murphy, âRick Murphy is an Assholeâ is a âsalute to the asshole,â in sketch, video and song. Scripted by writers for comedycentral.com, FuseTV and McSweeneys, this new edition features 25% more assholishness!

âOur show doesnât point the fingers at assholes, but it celebrates them -- if only because there are so many of them around,â Murphy said. âAnd, let's face it, assholes get things done. That's why so many of them become bosses, world leaders, corporate executives, landlords, and people on the subway.â

The PEACH TARTES are a retro-ironic burlesque troupe featuring such dancers as Scarlett OâGasm and more feathers, glitter, glam, glitz, moxie and pasties than you can shake your barely covered butt at. The ripe and ready and eminently pluckable Peach Tartes can be picked by you upcoming Saturday nights at MCÂ².

âRick Murphy is an Assholeâ "Robin Gelfenbien" and the âPeach Tartesâ will be at Manhattan Comedy Collective April 28, May 5, 12 and 19. at 10 PM.

âRick Murphy is an Assholeâ stars Rick Murphy, with Lindsay Joy and Rob Bates. Directed by Jeremy Westphal. Written by Rick Murphy, Jeremy Westphal, Lindsay Joy and Rob Bates.
