Asperger’s Are Us, the first comedy troupe consisting of openly autistic people, is coming to NerdMelt for a sketch show you won’t forget! Featuring Jake Hanke, New Michael Ingemi, Noah Britton, and Ethan Finlan.
“Asperger’s Are Us is funny. More than funny: Hilarious. That has to be mentioned first, because it can sometimes be obscured by the fact that the four-man sketch troupe… is… ‘the first comedy troupe consisting of openly autistic people.’
[Their sketches] often consist of precisely worded, dark, observational comedy balanced with absurd humor. Even when there is no mention of Asperger’s, sketches often play off the affectlessness associated with their diagnosis, mixing up objects and people in bizarre combinations. It’s smart, weird, deadpan humor at its best.” -CultureMap Austin
“I found myself laughing hard because they have a great sense of comedic timing, sometimes a little deadpan, sometimes a little punny, their style of humor is a little different across the troupe members which was great…
“I think this is one of the best documentaries I’ve seen in a long time. It was fantastic from the beginning to the end”
-GeekScholars review of Duplass Brothers Productions’ forthcoming documentary Asperger’s Are Us
