Asperger’s Are Us is the first comedy troupe composed of people diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome. They do not poke fun at Asperger’s and didn’t form to prove that autistic people can be funny. They formed for the same reason anyone does comedy: To make you laugh!
“Weird as the performances were, they were in line with the type of sketch I like from Kids in the Hall or Whitest Kids U’Know—oddball characters, goofy premises, and clever wordplay. As a neurotypical person who is generally ignorant of autism, I didn’t know what to make of the Asperger’s aspect of the act. As a discriminating fan of alternative comedy, I ate it up.” – Philadelphia Weekly
Cast: Noah Britton, Ethan Finlan, Jack Hanke, New Michael Ingemi
