What if I'm having trouble playing my dvd copy?
Do not fret...most people never experience problems.
First make sure your disc is free of smudges and that your player is clean.
Also check to see if it plays in another player or computer if possible.
If all else fails, we are happy to replace any possible bad copies with
a working one at no extra cost.
What characters and sketches are expected?
You can expect to see sketches or at least cameos
from many of your favorite characters including Dr.Slappy Von Slime, Christmas
Carol, Grizz, The Sheep, Scrooge, Recliner Phil, and many more...along
with lots of new characters.
Is this super big budget hollywood explosion
movie making!?
Heck, No. But it is damn good and well done.
Although all of the talent featured are working writers, performers, and
producers each with over a decade of professional experience together and
degrees in broadcast productions, film, and theater, we do try to keep
this as low budget as possible to keep the cost down for many people to
enjoy each year in our annual tradition. It is much better than most
of the things you'd see on the internet and twice as original and funny.
How long do you spend producing the show?
Each year we typically spend about 6-7 full days
of shooting and another full week of editting. Prior to that is a couple
weeks of writing and pitching ideas of what we want to put in the show.
Prior to that is a year of improv shows, rehearsals, and jamming that feed
the creative process. We try keeping the entire production as close
to the holiday season as possible for the right mood, atmosphere, and freshness
as if it was a live show. This year we have also shot a few
sketches earlier in the year to include so that it's more of a year-round
celebration of comedy.
What's with the drag?
We are secure enough to do such things for theater!
While Jenny was away in Utah, someone had to play all these great female
roles....but now that she's back, um, er,...we shall not be limited!
Are there puppets!?
Our favorite duo may show up in random locations.
It is a Phantom Sheep, so who knows when it shows up. However, this is
NOT one of our family puppet shows that you may've seen in a theme park
at all.
Who is the cast?
The show is written and performed by PSP Troupe
members Eric Boucher, Tommy Lynch, Jenny Taylor, Jeff Tingley, Greg Seymour,
and Kevin Zabawa. This same small group did all the writing, performing,
directing, voice-overs, art, and even post-production..
Can I still order last year's if I missed it?
We have a very limited supply left of past year's,
but if you act fast we may be able to get you copy.
Are you having a public screening?
By popular demand, we have arranged to have a
free public screening for all our friends and fans at the Agawam Public
Library a few days before Christmas on Monday
Dec.21st! The troupe will be there and also perform a few
improv scenes and sketches live. We want as many people to attend; but
it'd be great if you still bought a dvd as a souvenir to help support the
project.
Is this being aired on TV?
Yes! Amherst Community Cable is excited to air
our shows again on Channel 12 in the Amherst/Pelham area including 2007
and 2008 special. However, the cablecasted shows won't have everything
the dvd has in it. We have also just released additional clips at
our Facebook
Fan Group.
What is the rating/age reccomendation?/ Is
it "dirty"?
We are proud to not play "cheap" or "blue" and
we don't consider ourselves "hardcore" to be "shocking"; but this is for
a teen/adult audience as it contains social satire, parody, and some "mature"
inuendo. If we were to give it a safe rating, it'd probably be TV-14.
There is no nudity and we avoid the FCC forbidden words.
