Tonight (in NYC at the UCB theatre) we head up against THE STEPFATHERS.  They’re an awesome team with a lot of phenomenal improvisers DERRICK looked up to while studying at the theatre…

Which is why we must destroy them.

The show is already SOLD OUT but there is a stand by line where we’ll try to get as many people in as possible. Ya’ dig?

We’re Lil’ Wayne. They’re Jay-Z. And YOU get to officially choose who’s the best. How awesome are you?

This shit is gonna be wet!

The John Hopkins show this weekend is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!!!! You do not need to be a Johns Hopkins student to attend!

If you’re in the Baltimore area, it only cost $5 to see us dick around LIVE on stage. What a bargain! Seriously,this is gonna be huge. Come on out and meet us. Ya-dig? B-more! B-more! B-more! Hoooooo!!!

Also, we’d like to thank everyone who came out to see us in Saratoga last weekend at the National College Comedy Festival at Skidmore College. We played to a sold out crowd and you guys were the best. Thanks for the awesome show and the oh-so sick after party. Hope to see you all again soon.

Our monthly show, STREET LEGAL, is this Saturday starting at midnight at the UCB theatre in New York! Reserve tickets here. Weird characters. Improv about farting zombies. It’s all good.

Also we’re back in UCB’s improv competition, CageMatch, this Thursday the 7th at 11 PM. Come support us! Your vote determines the winner, who returns next week, plus there’s live on-stage wrestling. Reservations for that are here.

Hey,

As some of you may have noticed, there’s been a slowdown in our
production of videos. We’ve actually gotten a lot of emails, MySpace messages, and Facebook wall posts asking “When is your new video coming out? Stop being turds!” and “Why is it taking so long for the new videos? You guys are totally being turds by holding out on the videos,” and simply, “TURDS!!!” Well, the truth is we’ve been working on a project that we’re really excited about and are now ready to announce.

In May of this year we’ll start filming a feature length movie written, directed, and produced entirely by the DERRICK comedy team. (Tah-dah bitches! You thought we fell off!)

The script is written and being re-written as you read this. We’ll be casting, location scouting, the whole nine yards, all this month.

So what does this mean as far as seeing new sketches on the site? Well, that’s the bad news. We can’t say that we’ll be kicking out as many videos as we had been a year ago. The movie will be monopolizing all of our free time since we want it to be the awesomest movie ever made. We will try our best to put out a little content, but we really can’t even promise that. There will be a bit of a drought for some time, unfortunately.

But the good news is that we will constantly be updating the news section of the DERRICK site with updates on the movie and any insight we can wing at you. You guys are the reason we’re actually able to make this thing, so we want to keep you informed.

If you’ve ever bought one of our t-shirts, come to one of our live shows, left a comment, or forwarded one of our videos to your cousin, you helped us get to a place where we can step back from our lives for a few months and create a full-length comedy feature film, and we are eternally grateful for that. Now we’re asking you to keep the faith for a while as we undertake the next great DERRICK adventure.

We really appreciate all the support and we can’t wait to start filming.

Here we go!

This Saturday, we’ll be presenting the November edition of STREET LEGAL at the Upright Citizens Brigade  Theater in NYC. Street Legal is a collection of all-new characters, sketches, videos, and improv. You haven’t seen any of it before. New every month. Our promise to you.

The show is this Saturday night, November 3rd, at midnight. You can make free reservations and get directions, etc., here. Admission is five bucks. There is no drink minimum or age limit. Come one come all!

The NEXT Saturday, the 10th, we’re performing at 8:30 as part of the UCBT’s “Longest Sketch Show Ever.” We’re co-headlining the festival with UCB’s Matt Besser and the incredible sketch group Kasper Hauser of San Francisco. We’ll be putting up a best-of show. Festival passes are twenty bucks, which gets you into every single show, totaling 24 consecutive hours of awesome sketch comedy on one stage, one show after the next. Our friends Greg and Lou, Hammerkatz, and Harry Terjanian are all mounting shows, as well as tons of other amazing groups. If you are a comedy head in the area, you probably owe it to yourself to catch as much as possible. Details here.

See you there, tri-state area!

Also, thanks to everyone who came out and supported us at Cagematch. Thanks to you guys, we will be opening the 2008 season in January, as well as appearing in the 2007 Cagematch Tournament in December. Stay tuned.
