The Associated Mess

The Associated Mess has been a staple in the Lehigh Valley entertainment scene for nearly five years with regular performances at several venues, including The Artsquest Center at SteelStacks, Civic Theatre of Allentown, Hotel Bethlehem and more. Our very adaptable show usually has a host set up a dozen or so wacky games, each with their own gimmick, for four performers to play out......without a script! To make it even more challenging and entertaining, the scenes are based off of a suggestion from the audience!

In example, in the creatively titled "Alphabet Game", the host will explain the game and then ask the audience to fill in the blank with something like "My teacher assigned a 50 page report on ________." In addition, the host will ask the audience for a letter that will begin the first line of the scene. The next person to speak must begin their line with the next letter of the alphabet and so forth until all 26 letters have been used, in order! What comes after J?

Our regular performances are recommended for mature audiences, as we never know what the general public may yell out as a suggestion, but we have entertained with a G rating numerous times for all ages. Other credits include performing in junction with a variety of businesses that want to, in example, make their safety demonstration a lot more engaging and fun. With the talent and skills of The Associated Mess, the possibilities are endless!
