Ivy League comedians? Could it be?
We know. We’re supposed to be Presidents and CEOs and captains of industry. We get it. But we just couldn’t go down that path to success. We wanted to tell jokes instead.
So yes, we admit, we didn’t invent anything, and we’re not the founders of Google or Apple, but we will make you laugh out loud!
(We know this because our parents are still laughing after we told them what we were using our college educations for)
So come see The League Show East – a comedy show featuring Ivy Leaguers presenting smart comedy for all to enjoy (no matter what you got on the SATs!)
The League Show East is brought to you by:
