Another satisfied customer:

Dear Janiece and all Detention Span Performers,

 

    I just couldn't wait to let you all know what a fabulous time we had at your performance!  You all did such a wonderful job!  My daughter and all of her friends really enjoyed the entire experience!  What a great time we all had, and I have told many of our friends about it.  We are looking forward to coming again, in the near future!  You are all so talented, and very polite.  I would recommend this charming and delightful show to anyone looking for a unique and out of the ordinary party idea. 

 

Thank you all for all the laughs!

Keep up the great work!

 

Sincerely,

Rhonda & Brianna Koch (satisfied customers!)

HALF GIRL HALF BUTTERFLY FOUND NEAR STARBUCKS
by Chip Montgomery

Scientists were baffled last Thursday when a creature unlike any in the annals of history was discovered near the North Hollywood Starbucks.  Dr. Ashton Moio described the find as “The most significant achievement in mutation science since my little sister was born.”  In what appears to be a Half-Girl, Half-Butterfly mutation, “Emily” as Dr. Moio has named her could reinvent the fledgling field of nanomutanology.  Other scientists are bit wary of Dr. Moio’s find.  “Moio has been known to play around the edges of science.” Quipped Dr. Alba.  “He is what we call in the scientific field, a Loose Cannon, kind of like Maverick in that beautiful Tony Scott film  “Top Gun”.  Dr. Moio leaves his wingman all of the time.”  Then Dr. Alba did a little dance, to the chagrin of his colleague Dr. Dannetell. Although the scientific community is at odds with how and where this new genus derived from, there is one thing they all agree upon.  “It sure is cute.” Dr. Dannatell.

 

 

GIRL IS TRAGICALLY TICKLED CLOSE TO DEATH; POLICE ARE BUGGED
by Joshua Minnick 9/23/04

It was a quiet day for Alicia Sixto’s in her Woodland Hills estate.  She set about helping the homeless, knitting a quilt for her the elderly and searching for that elusive cure for Athlete’s foot, when suddenly there was a knock at the door.  Normally this would be the time her younger, and much more polite sister, Veronica would arrive home from school so Alicia thought nothing of it.  When suddenly, tragedy struck.  A nearly fatal tickle assault, brought on by unknown assailants, placed Alicia in a near fatal coma.  She was rushed to Cedar Sinai, where Doctor O’Reiley gave a grave prognosis.  If Alicia did not receive a rare vaccine known as TickelessInteruptus, she would surely perish.  Police suspect a McCulty in this daring day-time tickle raid.  There have been 7 tickle related crimes in the past 6 weeks all in some way or another connected.  When pressed for answers Police Chief Brandon P. Bassir expressed “It’s the work of only one little man, AKA Mr. Ladybug!” and then Chief Bassir asked for a dollar and spilled his Skittles all over the podium.

THE PRINCESS ESCAPADE
by Janiece Minnick
8/6/04

Two of our own "Princesses", Taylor Lipman and Monette Moio (aka Queen Car Lot), visited their kingdom of Hollywood and the El Capitan theatre, thanks to the wonderful Princess Cecilia Morales of Disney.  The ladies enjoyed a sneak preview of "The Princess Diaries II:  The Royal Engagement" complete with complimentary drinks and buckets of popcorn.  Four thumbs up were given by the ladies and were then rushed away to Tea; however, Taylor Lipman didn't need anymore to drink after 3 visits to the throne.  Princess Monette's highlight of the evening was visiting a random Storm Trooper on the way, who was surprisingly friendly and didn't want to kill us.  Two dollars and "The Force" ensured that!  Upon arriving the tea party amongst other princesses and their escorts, Prince Charming seved up quite a feast.  All healthy fruits were shooed away as more brownies and cookies were demanded.  See's candies and pink lip gloss lined the table and goody bags filled with crayons, stickers, coloring books, posters, and more gloss hid beneath our chairs.  Princess Taylor found the perfect place for us all to take our picture.  Prince Kaore declined the complimentary princess gown and crown, yet lounged in the chaise while his ladies posed for portraits.  Princess Monette frowned at the fact  that Princess Cinderella was not indeed a true blonde due to her dark brown eyebrows, but quickly was appeased by a cucumber sandwich and scone.  Princess Taylor didn't seem to care about anything more than making sure each Princess posed for a picture with her highness.  She did like the tea and the whole process of learning what is a teabag, how does it function, and will sugar be available instead of honey.  It was a lovely afternoon and brought us all much Joy, even watching the angry parking attended rescue his prized orange cone from underneath the Explorer.

by Chip Montgomery


DATE LINE 8/3/04 DPSAN NEWS - In what will undoubtedly turn our to be the discovery of the century, Scientist Noah P. Grannow discovered what appears to be the “Missing Link” in the Green Room of a Giggle Gaggle Sunday show.  The Missing Link stood 5 feet 2 inches and constantly rolled around on the ground and emitted high, ear piercing screams.  When questioned about his discovery, Mr. Grannow exclaimed “Make it STOP!” and ran from the Theatre.  The Missing Link was last seen demanding his 45 cent change from the Concession stand seller.
