The Comedy-O-Rama Hour


The Wedding of Ellis & Elise - part 3

January 31, 2014
Comedian Judy Tenuta improvises with Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) and Lorie Kellogg on this week's edition of The Comedy-O=Rama Hour.

In the episode of the improvisational radio theater hour, Tenuta gives relationship advice to characters Ellis and Elise (voiced by Bev and Kellogg) and plays accordion and sings at their Pastafarian Pirate wedding and then marries them under her own religion Judyism.

The Comedy-O-Rama Hour is a high rated show attracting thousands of listeners to subscribe to podcasts and radio stations around the world to pick up the show. Joe Bev attributes the positive response to his radio show as a sign today's audiences are craving radio theater.

"We are creating a fully realized storyline every week, with continuing characters, sound effects, music, full production values... plus we're funny!" says Bev, who performs nearly half the characters on the show, including Ellis the Boatkeeper, Sgt. Lefty, Adam Maxwell, Lil Orphan Andy, and others.

"We're Laugh-In with a plot!" beams Lorie Kellogg, Bev's wife and creative partner also performs many characters on the show, including Elise, Olive Pitts, Mrs. Cowlick, Ellis & Elise's mother, Lkie, Mrs. Terwilliger and others.

The husband and wife team record the comedy hour from their home and surrounding woods of Napanoch, NY. The show takes place at Camp Waterlogg, a fictional kids camp in the Catskills. Their two dogs, two cats and 25 chickens often make it into the audio of the show.

For the wedding trilogy, Bev and Kellogg enlisted the help of Kenny Savoy and James Folly, members of the Liquid Comedy troupe since 1979. Savoy plays Cousin Kenny, Peter Moss, Dufus and others. Folly is heard as Ron Drydale, Lil Jimmy, Reverend Cowlick and more.
