Kids in the Hall

It’s been eight years since the Canadian sketch comedy troupe The Kids in the Hall wrapped up their wickedly funny eponymous TV show. Like a bad Behind the Music episode, it appeared relations were strained, to the point that Dave Foley (who landed on the highly successful NewsRadio) was barely in the troupe’s 1996 swan-song motion picture Brain Candy. Thankfully, the gods of scatological comedy have smiled upon us, as Foley joins fellow Kids Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson for their second comedy tour. The last time they were in town, they didn’t disappoint, even though a week off had left them a little rusty (their fumble recoveries were Carson-esque). It’s going to be “Monty Python at the Hollywood Bowl” for Generation X–don’t miss it. State Theatre, (612) 339-7007
