    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Lydia Baxter Public Relations Associate (941) 366 – 9017 ext. 338 [email protected] DATE: June 28, 2018 FST ANNOUNCES SPECIAL EVENT FEATURING DICK SMOTHERS OF THE SMOTHERS BROTHERS (Sarasota, FL) — Florida Studio Theatre (FST) is pleased to announce a special event that has just been added to the 10th Anniversary Sarasota Improv Festival lineup—That’s My Song: An Intimate Evening with Dick Smothers, a celebration of comedy legends Tommy and Dick Smothers, more commonly known as The Smothers Brothers. Remembered today as popular American comedians and musicians, The Smothers Brothers were among the first to perform improvised material onstage as part of their musical comedy performances. At this special event, Florida Studio Theatre will recognize the group’s artistic contributions to improv at its milestone Improv Festival. FST’s Managing Director Rebecca Hopkins will lead an in-depth interview with the one and only Dick Smothers, followed by a fully improvised hip-hop homage to the Brothers’ groundbreaking work performed by North Coast, New York City’s premier hip-hop comedy team. Single tickets are $20 each for non-Festival pass-holders, or just $10 for Festival pass-holders. Tickets are now on sale at (941) 366-9000 or www.floridastudiotheatre.org. In 1959, comedy legends Tommy and Dick Smothers performed as a singing (and bickering) folk group in nightclubs and on various television shows, such as The Jack Parr Show (1961). Their act mixed sibling squabbles with music, and over the next decade, the brothers released twelve albums featuring their musical hilarity. “I can’t begin to express the impact that The Smothers Brothers have had on comedy,” shared FST’s Managing Director Rebecca Hopkins.

Gordon Senior History Thesis First Reader: Professor Bethel Saler Second Reader: Dean Gregory Kannerstein April 19, 2004 1 Acknowledgments I would like to take this time to thank Professor Bethel Saler for giving me this opportunity to research and analyze a subject matter that I care for deeply. Your guidance and structure has pushed me to produce something that has made me extremely proud. Also, the “Academic Heavyweights” in Jones 24: Robert Schiff ’04, Jonathan Debrich ’05, Manny Ferreira ’05, and Gray Vargas-Regan ’05 for living with me for an entire year—this speaks volumes for all of you! For my favorite redhead, Rachel Moston ’04 for always giving me her time to brainstorm and vent at this agonizing and yet rewarding process. I am extremely grateful to Professor Alexander Kitroeff, Professor James Krippner, Professor Bill Hohenstein, and Professor Dan Gillis for supporting me throughout my matriculation and helping me grow as an individual and as a scholar. The camaraderie and friendship I have received from the Haverford College Baseball team is something that I will take with me for the rest of my life and I would like to take this time to thank Dave Beccaria, Kevin Morgan, Ed Molush—and Dan Crowley ’91 for taking a chance on a kid who just loves to play the game of baseball. To my cousin, Scott Weinstein, who through his kindness has given me the opportunity to work in television.

After 44 years in the comedy business, The Washington Post declares that a Smothers Brothers show is “Fresh and perfectly timed…hilarious as ever!” Tom and Dick Smothers are comedians long considered ahead of their time and their Smothers Brothers act has enjoyed a lengthy career that has surpassed all other comedy teams in history. With consummate showmanship and their singular blend of comedic and musical talents, the irrepressible Brothers have made a sweeping impact on diverse generations of fans of all ages. The Smothers Brothers’ first professional appearance was at the Purple Onion in San Francisco in 1959; their first national television appearance was on “The Jack Paar Show” in 1961. Decades of audiences have seen the Smothers Brothers in their own primetime comedy series in the 1960’s, 1970’s and again in the 1980’s. The Brothers made guest appearances on numerous television programs, headlined countless engagements in Las Vegas, Reno and Lake Tahoe, starred in a popular video, cut twelve top-selling albums, and have performed continuous nationwide concert tours. The contributions Tom and Dick Smothers have made to the entertainment world throughout their careers were so highly respected that the Museum of Television and Radio in New York produced a retrospective and seminar on their work.

    Mason Williams Full Biography with Awards, Discography, Books & Television Script Writing Releases of Classical Gas January 2008 Page 1 Biography Mason Williams, Grammy Award-winning composer of the instrumental hit “Classical Gas” and Emmy Award-winning writer for “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,” has been a dynamic force in music and television circle since the 1960s. Born in Abilene, Texas in 1938, Williams spent his youth divided between living with his 1938 father in Oklahoma and his mother in Oregon. His interest in music began when, as a teenager, to 1956 he became a fan of pop songs on the radio and sang along with them for his own enjoyment. Oklahoma In high school, he sang in the choir and formed his first group, an a capella quartet that did the City 1950’s style pop and rock & roll music of the era. They called themselves The Imperials and to L.A. The Lamplighters. The other group members were Diana Allen, Irving Faught and Larry Warren. After Williams was graduated from Northwest Classen High School in Oklahoma City in 1956, he and his lifelong friend, artist Edward Ruscha, drove to Los Angeles. There, Williams attended Los Angeles City College as a math major, working toward a career as an insurance actuary. But he spent almost as much time attending musical events, especially jazz clubs and concerts, as he did studying. This cultural experience led him to drop math and seek a career in music. Williams moved back to Oklahoma City in 1957 to pursue his interest in music by taking a crash course in piano for the summer.
