September 16th & 17th
Moving to New York in 1994, the brothers began to develop their unique style of comedy – "a tag team delivery in which one talks over the end of the other's sentence, completing, adding to or reaffirming his comment (much like the raps of The Beastie Boys)," wrote Neil Strauss of the New York Times. “Their comedy accepts the reality of being twins but does not use it as a crutch. Instead," noted Strauss, "they work with their status as imperfect carbon copies of each other."
They quickly attracted the attention of MTV's talent executives looking to develop a different kind of comedy show. What they came up with was "Apartment 2F " – a sitcom format based around Randy and Jason's characters living in New York City. After developing pilots with HBO Independent Productions, WB and NBC, Jason and Randy provided the voices of Biff and Chip Oblong on the critically acclaimed animated show, “The Oblongs.”
Randy and Jason have also guest starred in several TV shows, including an Emmy Award winning episode of HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” They starred as conjoined twins in a memorable episode of “Grey's Anatomy” and as warring agents on HBO's “Entourage.” Their acting talents have also been seen on FX’s cult hit “It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” “Providence,” “Becker,” “Law & Order,” and more recently “Children’s Hospital,” “The Legend of Neil,” and in the movies “Wild Hogs,” “The Comebacks,” and “Bubble Boy.” Their half hour “Comedy Central Presents” stand up special is still in regular rotation on the network.
Huge sports fans, the brothers combine their knowledge of sports and comedy on shows such as, “Cheap Seats” on ESPN Classic, and on ESPN's “SportsCenter.” They also fill in as guest hosts for Jim Rome on his popular nationally syndicated radio show.
Don’t miss the return of the Sklar Brothers - one of the most unique comedy acts in the world!!
