Swinf@n goes swimming in Old Town!

Chapter 9 in the Old Town regime would mean that they would face a competitor like no other, a contestant on fire, a challenger that has earned the name challenger, they would face Swimf@n. In a surprise, Old Town arrived on stage with two of their regular residents out of town and neighbor stepping in to fill that gap and that neighbor would be Betsy Sodaro filling in for Frian and Taylor. Would this give Swimf@n an advantage with or put them at a disadvantage? You would only know, if you had been lucky enough to nab a ticket to the sold out show last Wednesday night.

Swimf@n hit the stage swimming as if they were the sports biggest fan. After a month long of regular performances at TNT, Swimf@n had the stage experience to go up against the best. The audience had to do a double take to make they were watching Swimf@n and not Michael Phelps biggest fan. They finished their 20 minutes with a nice relay race.

After half time, Old Town would hit the stage and with a last minute arrival of Brian, Old Town was ready, and ready they were to take on their toughest challengers yet. Old Town would once again prove they were the champs in this town.

After both had been given 20 mintues to perform, the audience votes and those were counted, making Old Town champs for another week in row!

Zeppo Marx comes to Old Town

Another fierce installment of Cagematch, challengers Zeppo Marx would come and try to take down the power of Old Town. Would Old Town thrive? or would it fall like so many states and city infrastructures left in an economy lead by money grubbing bastards... we'll it would all be determined by 20 mins in front of a voting audience.

Old Town

would take the stage first, the way they like it. They came out of the gate and were ready to defend their

title in the toughest cagematch in town. Old Town started by throwing some upper cuts and some jabs and then went to town... I mean they went to Old Town on their opponents.

Half time = Harrison's rambling rant

Zeppo Marx were ready to take on their mission straight on. Their first objective and only objective would be to make the audience laugh and laugh they did, but would it be enough? Only the audience would determine that fact.

The votes were taken, collected, and counted the audience voice (voice through voting and yelling at the actual show) and a winner was determined and it looks like Old Town is settling in as UCB Cagematch winners.

See Old Town face a team of all teams on July 15th at 11pm vs. Swimf@n.

This Old Town has a Lincoln's Bedroom

Another Wednesday, another Match, another Cage would bring together an amazing challenging team to face the reigning champs Old Town. Lincoln's Bedroom is not a force to be reckon around with, a team made 8 people, they would come out swing. After the coin toss Old Town would be going first.

With host, Harrison Brown nearly screwing their intro Old Town, took it to the stage or as some peop

le might say took it to the heat. Speaking of heat the theatre was super hot on this night, which just added fuel to the fire of cagematch. Once again Old Town had another amazing show, knocking it out of the park. Pretty soon they will have to start performing at Dodger stadium, if they keep hitting it out of the park.

But then Lincoln's Bedroom, hit start and activated the improv show. A team that usually does a harold took a break from it in order to blow our minds. The team comprised of 8 people went scene after scene, hitting the audience for laughs. Would their effects be enough for them to return the following week?

The fate of both teams laid in the audience hands in the form of a ballot, they casted their vote, their votes were counted and Old Town wins again.

Next week they will have to face off against Zeppo Marx at 11pm on Wednesday (7/8). Make your reservations today!

2 on 2

This Wednesday night match would end up being a 2 on 2 battle. With one member of Old Town out of town they would be short would that be enough to win another week? Well Hill Jones would put on their show and see if they could take down the mighty force Old Town has become.

With Old Town going first they had to find their two man style fast and they sure did. Never missing beat from scene to scene. Old town was ready to take down another challenger.

...and that challenger would be none other than Hill Jones, Matt Jones and Dave Hill. Doing a somewhat monoscene that took place in a locomotive, playing different character made the audience crack up laughing, but was it enough?

After the votes were counting using standard counting methods, Old Town would prevail as champs again and would have to Lincoln's Bedroom following week.

Old Town has a Gigilo!

Another exciting installment in cagematch happened last Wednesday. Old Town going for the win number 5 would have to face a Gigilo in order to complete victory and not just any gigilo... Gigilo Puppy! With Gigilo winning the coin toss and deciding to go first, Old Town decided to greet their opponents with a kiss on the lips. Then it was showtime! ... not the premier cable channel but the showtime for two improv teams to face each other head to head.

Gigilo Puppy hit the stage doing a monoscene that started with three characters but continued to get more character, in which they all played the characters. It was obvious from the beginning that they would give Old Town a run for their money.

During half time it was time to play "Where's Waldo" in the crowd. A game where Harrison tries to find Waldo within the audience and yes he found him.

Then it was time for Old Town to come to the stage aka their home for the past four weeks, trying to stay there for at least one more week. Wasting no time, they started to hit it out of the park right after one another. After their 20 minutes it would be time for the audience to vote...

The real question would be would the audience protest for days after the vote, having to summon the cagematch supreme leader to intervein, well that didn't happen and Old Town won again!

See Old Town, this Wednesday (6/24) at 11pm faceoff against HillJones!

Old Town Crushes TAB!

In another heated battle of cagematch, it brought our champions up against a fierce competitor, TAB, whom perform regularly at Crashbar on Thursday nights. It was determined somewhat early on, I say somewhat after Harrison long-winded opening. Then it was battle time.

Old Town took it to the stage to delivered to the audience. Well the audience received and laughed their

socks off. Would Old Town's performance be enough to keep their streak going?

TAB, which sounds and is spelled the same as the soda that was made popular in the 80's come our excited and ready to take on these champs.

Which way would the audience leans towards and vote...

... and our winners are Old Town, back again on Wednesdays at 11pm.

People will be calling this the Nerds and Jocks Cagematch for years!

The audience climbed aboard last Wednesday for another Cagematch aka Power Hour. The audience had their tickets aka ballots ready to see an amazing and little did they know they were right! The returning Champs Old Town were ready for week 3, and UCB Harold team Arts & Athletics were ready to show them who control this town!

Old Town would be defending their title first. Let's just say their population wasn't three, it was was population funny. Giving the audience another twenty minutes of solid laughs the audience couldn't have been happier. Would this be the night they pull a McCain at the voting booth or an Obama?

Arts & Athletics, who perform regularly at UCB on Monday nights at Harold night, were ready to take the stage. They formed a free flowing montage, which is different from their normal harold. Taking a few minutes to get use to a different stage they emerged with bringing the house down with laughs. It's easy to say they were playing to pull off an Obama, but would it be enough to get the audience?

Most voting in this country takes place on Tuesday, but let's be honest the only voting that is really worth a damn takes place on Wednesday at 11:55pm at UCB. Once the audience voted the winners would be crowd and they would be able to ride their victory for at least a week. And the winner is... Old Town, your continuing Champions.

See Old Town take on another enormous improv giant, TAB this Wednesday (6/10). TAB has been know to knock down improv walls so be careful.

Make your reservations now, before it sells out!
