Submit your Films for the Student Comedy Extravaganza on November 3rd!

Posted under Uncategorized

This event will be on November 3rd in the Alumni Hall during LateNight. It is being hosted by Michael Showalter of Wet Hot American Summer and Stella who will also be performing a small comedy routine himself.  Penn State students will be performing stand-up and musical comedy.  We will also be showing student works of comical/satirical films.  The event is free.  There is no submissions fee.  Interested students can contact SOMA@psu.edu.  Those submitting films can drop off their DVDs in the “Students Organizing the Multiple Arts” mailbox which is at the HUB information desk.
We’re still looking for more people that want to do stand-up, and we still need more comedic/satirical films.  Please sign up or submit your stuff before the deadline of Monday October 31 (Halloween).
