As many of you may know, this weekend is the last weekend before
Halloween.  Something Dada's celebrating with a special deal - wear a
costume, half price ticket.  Just that simple.  But it does have to be a real
costume, not just "I'm a t-shirt model."  Stuck for costume ideas?  As
always, Something Dada is here to help:

- Hang a stop sign around your neck - You're Joel Skinner
- Build a bathroom stall around yourself, a la Daniel Larusso's shower
stall, get a huge pair of shoes, and be Larry Craig
- Bring a bowling ball duct taped to a broomstick and be Nicole
Richie
's boyfriend

As you can see, the possibilities are endless.  So dress up and come on
down to Dada this weekend for more fun than you can fit in a pumpkin.

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.  (Or at least that's
what Uncle Jim said after we struck out again in Little League.)  As such,
Something Dada want everyone to be a winner, so we've compiled a whole
bunch of prizes that you can win at Dada the 13th this Saturday,
including:
- a signed Cavs jersey
- signed Browns merchandise
- Chagrin Valley Little Theater tickets
- Restaurant gift certificates from:
- The Nauti Mermaid
- Ironwood Cafe
- Arabica
- Alesci's
- Blind Pig
- Quaker Steak and Lube
- Dada merchandise

And much, much more.  All of that, PLUS food, drinks, and the hilarious
improv Dada''s been doing for the last 13 years.  So get your rafflin'
shoes on and head down Saturday night for the big party.

While we're on the subject of winning, make sure to vote for Dada on
Fox Cleveland's HOT LIST as Best Live Comedy.  Just follow this link and
vote:
http://myfoxcleveland.cityvoter.com/Details.aspx?business=23929

If you're convinced that we ARE indeed the best live comedy in
Cleveland and want a chance to win a Something Dada package while supporting
independent local businesses at the same time, you can WIN (see, there's
that word again) a Dada gift pack in the FutureHeights auction:

Good luck, and we can't wait to see you down at the Tower Press.

As everybody no doubt knows, Dada the 13th, Something Dada's
anniversary celebration, falls on the same weekend as Petkouden, or St. Petka's
Day, in Bulgaria (http://www.seraja.com/experience.jsp?eventID=72800).
  As such, someone may have invited you to a Petkouden party, and you're
debating whether to go to the party or come to Dada the 13th.  To help
you make this decision, we've put together a handy comparison chart for
you to reference:

Petkouden: Dedicated to St. Petka, though nobody's sure exactly who
St. Petka is (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraskevi).
Dada the 13th: Dedicated to St. Dada, the non-existent saint of making
things up.
Advantage: Dada

Petkouden: Includes the consumption of boiled beans.
Dada the 13th: Includes the consumption of complimentary beer and
food.
Advantage: Dada, big time.

Petkouden: Related to the breeding of domestic animals.
Dada the 13th: Might give you the chance to mate like wild animals.
Advantage: Dada

Petkouden: Features the performance of a special ritual called "The
Sheep Wedding"
Dada the 13th: Features the performance of a special ritual called
"The Blues"
Advantage: Petkouden, depending on what exactly "The Sheep Wedding"
involves

Petkouden: You give away some of your food.
Dada the 13th: You may win one of our giveaways, raffles, or auctions.
Advantage: Dada

Petkouden: It's going to cost you over a grand to get to Bulgaria.
Dada the 13th: Tickets are only twenty bucks, and you don't have to
take your shoes off at any point.
Advantage: Dada

Petkouden: Attempts to calm angry demons and wood nymphs.
Dada the 13th: May anger certain demons and wood nymphs.
Advantage: Petkouden, because nobody likes and angry nymph.

Petkouden: Not even nominated for Fox Cleveland's HOT LIST for Best
Bulgarian Festival
Dada the 13th: Something Dada was nominated for Best Live Comedy in
Cleveland (vote now!
http://myfoxcleveland.cityvoter.com/details.aspx?business=23929)
Advantage: Dada

Petkouden: Devoted to stockbreeding.
Dada the 13th: Devoted to making sure you have an awesome time.
Advantage: Dada

Overall, Dada the 13th CRUSHES Petkouden, 7-2.  So, turn down your
Bulgarian friends, or even better, invite them to come with you to Dada the
13th!  (Tell them to suggest Sheep Wedding during the show.)  But
hurry and get your reservatons now at
http://www.somethingdada.com/reservations.aspx before the Bulgarians
grab up all the seats.  Of course, you can always pre-party with Dada
this weekend, as our regularly scheduled shows will continue on Friday at
8 PM and Saturday at 8 and 10:30 PM.

Wow, is it an exciting time at Something Dada.  So rather than mess
around with jokes and what-not, let's get straight to what's going on.
  (For those of you who depend on this e-mail for your weekly dose of
funny, imagine an overweight man slipping and falling, while carrying eggs
which fall and break all over his face.  If needed, imagine he also
passes gas.)

- Something Dada has been nominated for MyFoxCleveland's HOT LIST as
our town's Best Live Comedy!  Needless to say, we agree wholeheartedly.
  To support our candidacy, click here:

http://myfoxcleveland.cityvoter.com/Details.aspx?business=23929

If we win this election, we promise to harp on it constantly, and pimp
it mercilessly in all of our marketing materials.  Also, to be
uniters.

- Something Dada is out on the town!  We will be performing Sunday,
September 23rd at 1 PM and 3 PM at Walk and Roll in the Cultural Gardens
on MLK Drive.  Check the site out here: http://www.walkroll.com/  The
entire Walk and Roll Cleveland event is a great opportunity to see what
Rockefeller Park, the Cultural Gardens, and Cleveland as a whole have
to offer, so some down and check it out. 

Also, we'll be performing on Saturday, September 29th at the Coventry
Crawl
(http://www.pluggedincleveland.com/events/16448/coventry-crawl.html) on
Coventry Road in Cleveland Heights.  All the best that Coventry has to
offer will be on display, along with the Best Live Comedy in town
(remember to vote above).

- Don't forget Dada the Thirteenth, our celebration of our 13th
anniversary.  It'll be held Saturday, October 13th at the Wooltex Gallery in
the Tower Press Building.  Doors open at 8, show starts at 9, and there
will be complimentary food, drink, prizes, and of course a show
featuring current and alumni Dadas.  Hurry and get your tickets now at
http://www.somethingdada.com/reservations.aspx, or by calling
216.696.4242.

Want some great promotion for your business or organization, while
helping support live theater in Cleveland?  Donate something for raffles
and/or auctions for Dada the Thirteenth!  Large or small, from cars to
bumper stickers for cars, Something Dada will accept your donation and
feature your organization in our Dada the Thirteenth marketing, during
the show, and with a link on our site.  Email us at
info@somethingdada,com or call us at 216.696.4242 to arrange pickup of your donation.

- Need to liven up your company's holiday festivities?  Want something
new and interesting for a birthday, bachelor(ette), or bar/bat mitzvah
celebration?  Just looking to reward the hard-working folks in your
office?  Contact Something Dada about a private performance.  We'll
customize a show for you that people will be talking about for years.  Drop
us a line at info@somethingdada.com or 216.696.4242.

- As always, Dada will be doing our regularly scheduled shows this
weekend, Friday at 8 PM and Saturday at 8 and 10:30.  Make your
reservations now.

- And remember the poor fat guy with egg on his face and gas?  A car
just drove by and splashed water on him.  Always leave 'em laughing.

September is here, and that means one thing: APPLES!  (Well, it means
lots of things, but we're focusing on apples, OK?)  Apples are
everywhere this time of year, from apple picking trips, to apple pies, to
putting fresh-picked apples on the road to see 'em get run over (man we miss
3rd grade).  In order to help you converse over a glass of fresh apple
cider, we thought we'd provide you with a little trivia about the noble
apple:

- 7500 varieties of apples are grown throughout the world

- In colonial time apples were called winter banana or
melt-in-the-mouth.

- Like bifocals and turkeys, apples were invented by Benjamin Franklin

- If you took all the apples consumed every year and stacked them on
top of each other, the price of apples would skyrocket because you would
cause a major shortage.

- "Hard" apple cider is so named because that's how it makes you fall
down if you drink too much.

- The "Delicious" variety of apples is the most commonly grown in the
U.S.  The "Disgusting" variety is seldom grown outside of Wyoming.

- The average apple weighs 17% less than a large apple

- "Granny Smith" apples were named after Jim Smith's grandmother,
"Granny," so named because of her mispronunciation of the word "cranny"
when eating English muffins.

- If you were to make an entire house out of apples, you'd have to
make a new house pretty soon, because the apples would rot.  You could
varnish them, but we don't know how well that would work.  As the little
pigs taught us, bricks are probably a better choice.


Just a few things to gnaw on as you chomp into that Gala or peel that
Braeburn, brought to you by the folks at Something Dada where our shows,
like most of these "facts," are completely made up on the spot.  Bring
your favorite apple down and check out our shows this weekend, Friday
at 8:00 PM and Saturday at 8 and 10:30 PM.  Make your reservations now
at http://www.somethingdada.com/reservations.aspx or call 216.696.4242.
 

While your there, reserve your tickets now for the October 13th
Something Dada Lucky 13th Birthday Party.  Tickets are only $20, and include
food, drink, raffles, auctions, door prizes, and of course, a hilarious
Something Dada show.

Wednesday, August 22, 2007 
You are hereby invited to celebrate Something Dada's lucky thirteenth
birthday on Saturday, October 13th, 2007. Who knew, back in 1994, that
the gleam in a group of crazy people's eyes would turn into a Cleveland
institution, celebrating a Baker's Dozen of years filled with hilarity?
  (Well, there was Madam Lucy, she knew, so we should give her credit.)
  Other than that, though, Something Dada has had to fight through
doubters and robbers, leaks and vagrancy to make it to this milestone
celebration.

As such, we want you at the party with us!  It'll be a blow-out bash,
with food and drink sponsored by Becky's and Artefino, along with lots
of cool things to win.  Tickets are available for just $20, and you can
make reservations the same way always, via
http://www.somethingdada.com/reservations.aspx or by phone at
216.696.4242.  Get 'em fast, because this promises to be a huge shindig.
  Further details will follow, but clear your calendars now!

Hey everyone! It's your favorite Dada Jeaopardy contestant Sparkles! While I may be a professional male model I still know a thing or two about a good time. So without wasting any more time here we go:


SPARKLES (professional male model)' TOP TEN THINGS LEARNED AT DADA THIS PAST WEEKEND:

10. Sometimes your brother is actually your dad.

9. Amish Film Noir is a wonderful long lost film genre.

8.Just because you killed the bride to be doesn't mean she isn't coming back to take her rightful place.

7. D'as OK!

6. High School Musical 2 is all the rage.

5. Jeopardy prizes do not include breast implants.

4. There's more than just Flip Wilson and the whole city of Chicago in a magic closet.

3. Upside down faced Abe Lincoln makes a great party guest.

2. Wildcats love virgin blood.

1. A Dada show is a great way to spend a 5th Anniversary! (especially if you're from Toledo)

Wow is August boring.  Seriously, not only is it hot and muggy, but
there are NO holidays in August.  You basically go from the 4th of July
through to Labor Day without anything to celebrate.  Sure, those lucky
folks in Texas get to celebrate Petroleum Day on the 27th, but what good
is that to the rest of us? 

So, as Uncle Joe used to always tell us when we were bored, make your
own fun!  (He also used to tell us that eating rubber bands would make
us fly, but looking back, that's probably because it kept us busy for a
while trying to chew the darn things.)  Point being, Dada is hereby
proclaiming this Friday AND Saturday, August 17th and 18th: IMPROV DAYS!
  That's right, a national celebration of making things up!  Give it a
shot!  This weekend, concoct a crazy story about the faux historical
event that happened at the big oak in the front yard.  Give yourself a
fantastical biography.  Make up a breed for the dog.  Order a drink with a
ridiculous name, and tell the bartender exactly what's in it, and how
you came up with it when you were avoiding spies deep in the Russian
tundra. 

And of course, there's no better way to celebrate Improv Days than with
actual improv shows.  Come down and celebrate this new, wonderful
holiday with Something Dada Friday and Saturday nights.  See how much
improv you can cram into one weekend.  We give you three opportunities to
celebrate this inaugural event: Friday at 8 PM, and Saturday at 8 and
10:30 PM.  All of it happening right at the birthplace of Improv Days, the
Wooltex Theater in the Tower Press Building at 1900 Superior Avenue.
  So get your tickets for the celebration right now at
http://www.somethingdada.com/reservations.aspx

Happy Improv Days!

With August come the dog days of summer.  In honor of such, be sure to
enjoy the hot weather appropriately.  To wit...

- Be sure to sprawl out wherever is the least convenient for people
around you.
- Pant.  A lot.
- Poop outside (but be sure to pick it up afterwards).
- Sniff everything.  Twice, if necessary.
- Greet people by sniffing or licking them.
- Howl.
- Drink by lapping at beverages with your tongue (watch out for
splashback with hot coffee).
- If you can clean yourself with your tongue, go to town!

Last but not least, in order to make this the doggiest days of summer
yet, Something Dada wants to teach you a few tricks.  "Come" down to a
Dada Show this weekend.  Don't "play dead," just "fetch" your friends
and "roll over" to our theater at the Tower Press Building.  You don't
have to "shake" much money from your wallet, just $10 will let you "sit"
and watch hilarious improv.

Uh oh...here come the pun police...see you this weekend!
