Funny Monkey

The Cheeky Monkey Coffeehouse in Stroudsburg, PA hosted a Comedy Night on Friday November 5th presented by The Off Track Players. The comedy troupe featured local comedians who showcased their talents in a variety of sketches and improvisational games which amused their audience. These games included one called, “ABC” in which a location was selected by the audience and each performer had to begin their sentence in alphabetical order in relation to where they were. Audience members were invited to participate in this an other aspects of the show which enhanced the delight of experiencing it.
