The Comedy Shrine To Host The Seventh Python In Downtown Naperville
The Comedy Shrine, in Naperville, is excited to announce they will be hosting The Seventh Python, a documentary film about Monty Python’s music guru Neil Innes, on Friday, August 14th at 8 pm. Special comedy and concert appearance by Mark & Brett Hudson (the Hudson Brothers), based on Mark’s one man show Living On The Edge.
The Seventh Python is a 2008 musical documentary film about the career, music and philosophy of pop satirist and songwriter Neil Innes, who has been known as the “seventh” member of the six-man Monty Python comedy troupe. The film, however, shows how Innes’ influence and experience goes far beyond that chapter, to include his work with the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band, The Rutles and other work. The Frozen Pictures film had its premiere at the American Cinematheque’s Mods & Rockers Film Festival at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood in June 2008. The film was directed by Burt Kearns, produced by Brett Hudson and written by Kearns & Hudson. The film features Innes in performance in Los Angeles, Sussex, England and Melbourne, Australia and features Pythons John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin, as well as singer-songwriter Aimee Mann, Matt Groening (creator of The Simpsons), and composer/arranger John Altman, among others. On April 12, 2009, the director and producer of The Seventh Python received the Las Vegas Film Festival’s Golden Ace Award for “superior and standout filmmaking.” Three days later, the film was chosen as the Opening Selection of the 2009 Pacific Palisades Film Festival.
“I’ve seen the movie, The Seventh Python, and it’s a must see for any Monty Python or Neal Innes fan! It’s a wonderfully funny and charming piece of film making by my good friend Brett Hudson!” says David Sinker, owner of The Comedy Shrine.”Having Mark and Brett Hudson perform together after the movie is an incredible bonus! Mark has become the music producer of choice for Ringo Starr, Aerosmith, and Ozzie Osbourne! If his one man show is anything like the You Tube videos that feature him, the music/comedy concert will be hilarious!”
This is a one night only special only so make sure you purchase your tickets today. Show information: Friday, August 14th at 8 pm at The Comedy Shrine, 22 E. Chicago Avenue, Naperville, IL (the corner of Washington & Chicago Avenue in downtown Naperville).
