RooftopComedy Partners With Dirty South
February 27, 2009
RooftopComedy announced today that it is partnering with the Dirty South Improv Comedy Theater in Carrboro, North Carolina.
The partnership kicked off with the 2009 North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival, running from February 12th through February 21st. The largest comedy festival in North America, the NCCAF brings over 500 comedians to North Carolina with one week of stand-up and another of improv shows. This year, RooftopComedy sponsored the 9 stand-up comedy shows held on the DSI Comedy Theater main stage, and delegate Annie O’Rourke spoke on a panel discussing how comics can use RooftopComedy as a resource for growing their careers and self-promotion.
Following the NCCAF, RooftopComedy will be recording all stand-up comedy shows and select sketch and improv shows at DSI.
"DSI Comedy Theater is a different type of partner for us, as they feature sketch and improv comedy in addition to stand-up," said Will C. Rogers, Founder and CEO of RooftopComedy. "With a local group of talented writers, actors, and comedians, we can expand our content offering into other types of comedy. We're excited about the possibilities."
"By partnering with RooftopComedy, now the critically acclaimed improv, sketch, and stand-up comedy performed nightly at DSI will be accessible to a worldwide audience. We're really looking forward to producing some great comedy together," said Zach Ward, founder and Executive Producer of the DSI Comedy Theater.
RooftopComedy adds Dirty South to a rapidly growing roster of over 20 partner comedy clubs in the US, Canada, Europe and Australia, from which every performance is recorded with the best being published on RooftopComedy.com and syndicated to one or more partner media outlet such as Nokia, Motorola, iTunes, Sprint, Current TV, YouTube, Hulu, DailyMotion, Buzzwire, Lexy, mSpot, MobileStreams, and Australian mobile carrier, Optus.
RooftopComedy records live comedy performances every night of the week, 365 days a year.
