The Rubber Turkey Gazette
Welcome to the Rubber Turkey Gazette, the holiday edition of The Chicken!
We have a special Thanksgiving edition of yummy rubber turkey, so check out all the goodness inside and read all about the latest on our comedy family. (Vegetarians: no actual turkeys were harmed in the making of this newsletter.)
Hope to see you all at my (Insert Your Holiday Here) Party on Saturday, December 27 at my house in Eagle Rock. Hit me up if you need the info.
Happy Holidays everyone! Love, Bobbie
New Chickens!
We had three great grad shows and now we have new chickens graduated into the cult. I have listed the new names to the right of this blog in the Family Members section. Thanks to everyone in the show and to everyone who came out to show support to the family. We couldn't do it without your love and support!!
SUA T-shirts for Christmas
The StandUp Academy T-Shirts are here!! We have a good selection of choices for you all. They make great Christmas gifts for your friends and family ("Comedy Groupie", "I Could Use A Good Laugh", etc.) or yourself ("Comedian", "Will Work For Laughs", etc). Pick your favorite saying, color, style, size, etc. There's even something for kids and babies! (but if you buy your baby a onesie that reads "Stage Whore", I can not be held responsible if they grow up and become a comic). Thanks to Chris Schumacher for all the hard work on this! Hope you all get one or more shirts and spread the StandUp Academy name around the world (or LA and OC at least)!

Usually, privates are $100/hour, but until December 30, they are just $75/hour. I have several booked starting next week, so hit me back if you want to schedule something.
All private lessons take place at the Ice House.
