HERE'S THE PRESS RELEASE --- >
LOS ANGELES (June 1, 2009) -
When times are tough, everyone needs a good laugh. On Thursday June 11th, Causecast and Ben Morrison will officially launch A CAUSE FOR COMEDY, a monthly comedy benefit series streamed live from the world-famous Hollywood Improv. Partnering top non-profits from the Causecast community with a rotating slate of the best comedians in the country, A CAUSE FOR COMEDY says that laughter is the best medicine, and the co-pay feels great.
The June 11th show will be hosted by Ben Morrison (Punk'd), and 100% net proceeds from ticket sales benefit global nonprofit, NextAid (www.nextaid.org). The line-up on June 11th will feature Dan Levy (Comedy Central's "Premium Blend," "Chelsea Lately," & "The Late Late Show"), Sam Tripoli (Host of the "Wild World of Spike"), the beautiful Whitney Cummings ("Chelsea Lately", HBO's "Down and Dirty", & "Made of Honor"), The Greg Wilson ("The Hottie and the Nottie", Showtime, FOX), a special guest set by Ben Gleib ("Chelsea Lately, NBC's "Wedding Crashers") and musical act J Chris Newberg ("Last Comic Standing").
Although every single person in Los Angeles should join Causecast and NextAid at the Improv on the 11th, for those who simply cannot, A CAUSE FOR COMEDY will be broadcast LIVE and FREE to the world via livestream at ACauseForComedy.org. And not only can anyone watch, they can donate, too. Featuring cutting-edge technology so hot we had to buy gloves, anyone in the world can join in the laughter, and the healing, directly from our superslick player.
So if you live in LA, we'll see you at the Improv on June 11th, and If you don't live in LA, you'll see us.
