Press, Release, Repeat consists of
two men, a large grouping of words, and some actions. Here are
some words about the men.
Derek Forgie is the creator, star and producer of Planet
Skwirl, a cable show which enjoyed six years of popularity
in northern Ontario. He has also penned Putting on Shorts, a
book of comedic short-form plays, which was abridged and performed
in the 2005 Toronto Fringe Festival to the amusement of many
and the angering of few. He has been involved with Goodie
Bag TV for the better half of this century, and can be seen in
everyone's favourite shorts on the internationally renowned
comedy site. An experienced improviser and director/coordinator
of sketch troupe The Shaved Apes, Derek is as comfortable
“workshopping” and directing his material as he is performing
it.
Adam Wilson has appeared in the television series Exhibit
A and Are You Afraid of the Dark, the cable films The
Naked City: Justice With a Bullet and Code Name Phoenix and
the short film Coffee Shop, seen at the Montreal International
Film Festival. He has co-written several films, including Contract,
Proxima, and If Wishes Were Horses (currently in
editing limbo) and received glowing reviews for the short play Tabula
Rasa, co-written with Jack Grinhaus and Lauren Brotman and
performed at the Edmonton Fringe Festival. An experienced improviser
and writer/co-director of the Sketch duo Bacterial Culture, Adam
is as uncomfortable “workshopping” and directing his material
as he is performing near it.
Here are a few more words about the men: filthy, filthy whores.
Both of them can be seen in commercials for products which redefine
utility and satisfaction as long as they are on the air.
