On Thursday, June 9, PhilaMOCA presents a stacked bill of innovative comedy from both newcomers and legends:

THE LEGENDARY WID (local prop legend)
THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MATT & JACQUIE (dark local duo)
MCQUEEN:
While touring with RADIOHEAD one fateful night in Miami, McQueen impressed the band with an impersonation so fresh an idea was born. McQueen presents a fusion of music, comedy and video which parodies pop stars, movies and a variety of celebrities, creating an incredibly unique new universe with every show
"JUST BRILLIANT" - THOM YORKE
This show is mad funny! Dudes doing something crazy original, its going to be huge man! - DAVE CHAPPELLE
THE LEGENDARY WID:
THE LEGENDARY WID is one of the funniest people to ever come from New Jersey. Since his humble beginnings in Cranford, NJ, THE LEGENDARY WID went on to become the undisputed Prince of Props and Puns! In fact, when you look up "Prop Comedian" in the encyclopedia, it says, "THE LEGENDARY WID". He is also the subject of an award-winning documentary film titled WID by Jason Ferraro and Brian Galla. From his sold out shows at New York's The Bottom Line in the early 80s to his frequent TV appearances ever since, THE LEGENDARY WID has always been an audience favorite. WID uses props and puns to hilarious effect. He has hosted TV shows such as VH-1's "Top 20 Countdown" and appeared on "Stand-Up Spotlight". He has appeared on "Make Me Laugh" on Comedy Central and "Comedy On The Road" and "Caroline's Comedy Hour" on A&E, "The ABC Comedy Club Special" and "30 Seconds To Fame" on FOX. WID also appears on the best selling DVD "Laughing Out Loud - America's Funniest Comedians" along with Adam Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Ellen Degeneres, Jeff Foxworthy, Ray Romano, Drew Carey and Jay Leno.
THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MATT & JACQUIE:
The Incredible Shrinking Matt & Jacquie are a best friend sketch comedy duo that dwells in the dark and dabbles in the absurd. Matt & Jacquie are doomed idiots with a lot of heart, and so are their characters. They won the Dirtiest Sketch In Philadelphia competition in 2013, 2014, and 2015 and were nominated for a 2015 Philebrity award for Comedy Act of The Year. They have performed in the Philly Sketchfest, NYC Sketch Fest, and appeared in the 2015 Philly Fringe Festival production of Night Trolley.
