A “raw, tensely plotted, profound high-wire act of a book” (Téa Obreht) on the intricacies of marriage, class, and race, and just how far one man will go to protect his family—and himself. Sharif is a good person. He knows that he is good because he’s aware of the privilege that he...

London, 1772: a young artist called Thomas Rowlandson is making his way through the grimy backstreets of the capital, on his way to begin his studies at the Royal Academy Schools. Within a few years, James Gillray and Isaac Cruikshank would join him in Piccadilly, turning satire into an artform, taking on the British establishment, and forever changing the way we view power. Set against a backdrop of royal madness, political intrigue, the birth of modern celebrity, French revolution, American independence and the Napoleonic Wars, UPROAR! follows the satirists as they lampoon those in power.

Best friends Stanley and Manjit are part of Class 4B, which Head teacher Mrs Bottomley-Blunt says is the worst class in the world. She says school is not about footling or fiddle-faddling or fun. It is about learning and it is high time 4B tried harder to excel at it. But they didn’t literally mean to let the class stick insects loose in the wilds of the playground. And they really didn't literally mean to make a massive mess trying to do modern art (which may or may not have involved a mummified cat being stolen).

Uproar PR's PRFECT Insights podcast holds candid conversations on what makes public relations campaigns successful.

Brian Dykstra's rage ignites in The Jesus Factor, an uncensored and outrageously funny one-man tour de force about religious hypocrisy and power. Dykstra's ferocious and stinging rebukes of those in power who hold this nation hostage by their constant drumbeat of fear have branded him an "enemy" by Rush Limbaugh, while landing him on many of the Radical Right's watch lists, including the NRA's.

Erik Knowles has a style all his own. He treats his audience members to a behind-the-curtain realness that feels as though he is speaking to a living room full of his own friends. His storytelling and effortless ability to cajole audiences into full belly laughs every 10 seconds draws comparisons to Christopher Titus and a clean version of George Carlin.

Jamal Doman has his own style of comedy, which he refers to as "sophisticated ghetto". Jamal says, "My comedy is much like my personality. I'm from the hood, but I have some sophistication to me." Called "a comedian's comedian" by his peers, Jamal is poised on the brink of stardom. Jamal may be rough around the edges, but he is genuine at the core, and the audience relates to him.

Tony B is professionally funny, whip-smart, and stylish. Day Drinker, his debut album, pokes your funny bone and tickles your fancy. It's easy to love his upbeat, good-natured sense of humor. When he jabs at the audience, Tony pulls his punches; his razzing is gentle, his sensibility is metered. Jokes are crisp, polished, and to the point. The energy from the Arizona-based comedian is playful and warm.

Hello. This is me. Joe Klocek. I guess I’ve always wanted to be a social commentary comic. Dick jokes and dating-is-weird stuff is great, but here, I’m going for something a little more laid back. Something more storytelling in its approach, rather than the standard angry white man ranting about something no one is really that upset at. Hopefully, you will enjoy it, too.

He is a must see any chance you get!

David Arnold always knew that one day he'd be on stage. Always willing to go for the laugh, David decided comedy was for him. Although he grew up in a professional music family (The O'Jays), his heart remained true to the laugh.

In a world burdened with concerns about terrorism, global warming, and worldwide hunger (just to mention a few), nothing could be more welcome than a good laugh! Jeff Wayne plays upon today's heightened political awareness to poke fun at gay people, homophobes, sexism, racism, minorities, the politically correct, etc., etc....Laugh out loud funny, funny, funny!
