Utah’s One Thing: Front Row Film Roast/CrowdSourced Comedy

Standard

Since we started our show in 2016, we have been asking our guests at the end of every New Utah interview, “What is the one thing that you would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving?”

Episode 154 we had the cast of the Front Row Film Roast/ CrowdSourced Comedy join us for a roaring good time! We asked Jessica, Andrew, Trevor, and Craig what the one thing the would tell someone visiting Utah they had to do before leaving! Here are there answers.

Andrew said that there is so much here but because others have mentioned national parks, etc. Andrew said to go to the Avenues! There is no rhyme or reason behind the style of homes and also in the Avenues is the Salt Lake Cemetery. It’s on a hill you can see all the city and the history connected to Utah.

Craig said, yes it sounds cliché for him to say, but if you are in Utah in the month of June go to Utah’s pride festival! SLC is unique because it has one of the most dense LGBTQ+ populations because a lot of people flock to the state because it is a place to belong.

Jessica said it depends on what you enjoy but her one thing to do in Utah, is to go to Cedar City and take in the Shakespeare Festival! It goes from June to October!

Trevor said his one thing is to go to the restaurant Five Alls, but our Jessica squashed his hopes and dreams by telling him it had recently closed. He then said, go to F***n Arches!

Episode 154 Comedy Show Social Expectations

Standard

Episode 154 CrowdSourced Comedy/Front Row Film Roast troupe joined us to talk about how they got started and what they are up to in Salt Lake City! We were joined by Jessica, Andrew, Trevor, and Craig. All key players in both groups. You may be familiar with the name Mystery Science Theatre, but the Front Row Film Roast takes it to a completely different level. Instead of using campy b-movies, once a month they are roasting box office movies! Think, The Notebook, Space Jam, Twilight, and coming up this month the fan favorite Tobey McGuire Spider-man. Think about how you feel watching your favorite movie with your funniest friends, that is basically Front Row Film Roast. At Brewvie’s, in Salt Lake City, at the end of the month you can buy a ticket for a mere $12 and get your laugh on with Front Row Film Roast. *It is 21+ only*

We were able to get out of the cast what some of their most favorite past movies they roasted have been! Andrew, Back to the Future. Trevor, Wrath of Khan. Jessica, Love Actually. And Craig, The Notebook. They are always open to take suggestions from the audience for upcoming shows at their roasts!

Upcoming events: May 25th Tobey McGuire Spider-Man and June 29th will be Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark!

Their other passion project, CrowdSourced Comedy, is Utah’s premier improv group. Not only are they performing at Wiseguys and other local comedy clubs, they are using their talents to teach! Andrew, Trevor, Craig, and Jessica have developed their troupe over 9 years. While they always have a constant cast, you may find events where they feature students! They are also for hire, think your birthday party, funeral, etc. Well, maybe not a funeral? Who knows, that landscape is changing too! Improv classes start this week and you can pay for 1 class or the whole series.

We don’t want to give away all the laughs because we want you to listen! You can follow Front Row Film Roast on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. You can follow CrowdSourced Comedy on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Also stop by their YouTube channel, Naysayers!

On an ending note, regardless of the comedy show, don’t forget your comedy etiquette and don’t be a dick!
