GOT A SCIENCE SITUATION! No need to sit down for a Snarky Show. The improvisational, interactive format encourages everyone to get up and join in the madcap antics. If you don't laugh at least once, you just may need to be recallibrated. With a memorable cast of characters that includes a moody, seven-foot dancing robot and a glamorous click-beetle, plus live science experiments, cheeky humor, and pop songs about the Bernoulli Effect, surface tension, and gravitational potential energy, the Snark-a-Snoops are like nothing you or your family has seen or heard before. While the target Snarky audience is children aged 3 - 10, even the tiniest children are mesmerized by the music, motion and general mayhem. Older kids get into the crackpot humor and mad science. And everyone is electrified by the infectious music and magnetic personalities of Dr. 4, Professor Cheddar, and the whole Snarky Crew.
Here's What's New... Posted December 28, 2006... VICTORY
IS OURS! Not only will the Snarks be winding things up at the Burbank Library's Family Nights in January (January 11th and 18th), they'll also be starting a new run of shows at the Victory Theatre in Burbank. Rumor has it, Dr. 4 will be world-premiering a new move she calls the ELECTRIC GREEN BEAN HEAD-CRANK. Watch for it. Catch the Snarks on the first Sunday of each month, starting Sunday, February 4th, at 11:00AM, and bathe yourself in the sciencey glory of all-new updated shows and BRAND NEW VERSIONS OF SNARKY CLASSIC SONGS. Click here for a complete listing of all upcoming shows. HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM THE SNARK LAB! Posted September 26, 2006... 10
DAYS AND COUNTING... Dr. 4 is sporting a new green stethoscope, painstakingly lacquered in no fewer than FOUR coats of her paradigmatic virtidian broccoli-derived shellac. Professor Cheddar has built a scaled model of the Stella Adler Theatre in extra-super-sharp Vermont Cheddar. Ethan the Robot has undergone a comprehensive ferrous-chromium-alloy reconfiguration, while Kulashi Bug got so excited that she molted early. And LLoyne and Sir Lloyne have come up with an advanced allotropic isochronous sciencey dance number they call "Wild and Wonderful Windbag Wingding." Wanna see these and countless other haywire Snarky spectacles? Join us for the world-premiere run of our brand new live show, "RUCTUS RUCKUS!" at the historic Stella Adler Theatre in Hollywood. Click here for schedule info and click here to visit the Snarky online store for discounted show tickets. SEE YOU IN THE SNARK LAB! HELLO
HOLLYWOOD! Professor Cheddar's breakthrough cheese-vapor-propulsion unit-- in combination with Dr. 4's green-fusion atom smashing FOUR-cylinder engine and all of our Snarky friends' train hand fuel-- has delivered the Snarky Train safely to the wilds of Hollywood. Big fancy things are in store for the Snarks, so stay tuned for more info! ... And hello to all our friends in Orlando... WE MISS YOU! Posted April 4, 2006... SNARKY
BENCHMARK! Many of you have asked where we found the benches we use for Snarky shows at the Zebra Room. Well, Ethan the Robot and his uncles lovingly hand-crafted them in the Snark Lab just for us. They can't be purchased in any store. They are a one-of-a-kind, not-to-be-found-anywhere-else kind of item. However, they won't fit in the Snarky Train when we fly off to Hollywood, so we are FOURced to part with our sweet little benches... AND NOW IS YOUR BIG CHANCE! Not only can you adopt the perfect bench for your room or house, you can also enjoy the unique satisfaction of knowing that your special bench is one of just TWENTY original Snarky benches in the whole wide world. And better yet, we're having a Snarky Bench Painting Party after our show on Saturday, May 6! We'll have lots of paint, brushes, and art supplies on hand. We'll help you decorate your bench... we'll even sign it and draw pictures on it with you if you want. Your bench will be a priceless piece of art and a perfect memento of the Snarky experience here in Orlando. Since we've been announcing the Snarky Bench Party at our shows, people have already started snapping up benches. If you want to purchase one, please click here to email Corndog or talk to Sting Rae at a live show. (Price is $50 per bench) Snark on and see you soon! Posted March 20, 2006... SNARKS
ON THE NEWS! Candice Coleman and her film crew showed up at the Snark Lab this morning and tried to steal the Secret Snarky FOURmula for the world's first edible combustible window shades that function on a ground-breaking mixture of solar power and Professor Cheddar's flatulence. Luckily, we caught her in the act, orange-and-green-handed. We quickly forgave Candice because we're nice people... and also because we can completely understand a person's need to have edible combustible window shades that function on a ground-breaking mixture of solar power and Professor Cheddar's flatulence. The upshot of all this is that you can tune in to the Local 6 News tonight (5:30 edition!) to see the Snarks take on Candice Coleman in her "Out There" segment. Posted March 19, 2006... WESTWARD
HO! Ok, so Donny Osmond asked the Snark-a-Snoops to co-write some sweet science songs with him, and Jennifer Anniston asked if she could borrow Dr. 4's green ballgown, and David Cassidy painted his bedroom orange and green in preparation for the great event... But FOUR the record, these spectacular events are NOT what prompted the Snark-a-Snoops to move to Los Angeles. The real reason is that Corndog scored an amazing job at Hot Dog On A Stick. So how does this affect you, the loyal Snarky friend and fan? First of all, we want to say goodbye in person, so PLEASE visit us at a show before we scoot out of town on May 9. Second of all, start hoarding Snarky gear so you can sell it for millions on Ebay in a few years. Third of all, if you want Dr. 4 and Professor Cheddar to bestow a Science Name on you (sort of like a rapper name or a breakdancing tag), come to a show and let us know! And FOURTH and finally, if you see Donny Osmond before we do, please let him know that we worked out the bridge section on the new Osmond-Snarky duet, "Donny OSMOSIS Drops the Snarky Science Beat."

MOVE INTO THE SPACE-AGE Lloyne told Dr. 4 and Professor Cheddar that they were among the last humanoids on the planet not to have a MySpace. So they ran the math, calculated and re-calculated, studied the empirical evidence, and finally came to the scientific conclusion that the Snark-a-Snoops do indeed need a MySpace page, although they're still not sure why.

CENTER JAMBOREE All you need to do is find ten friends or family members who have realized that by not being a member of the Snarky Club, they are missing out on breaking Snarky news, show updates, and the stand-up, stand-out, stand-alone CORNDOG NEWSLETTER. Submit the emails of your ten lucky CONSENTING friends by clicking HERE, and we'll give you a hot-off-the-press CD single of Science Center Jam... NOT AVAILABLE BY ANY OTHER MEANS! (At least not until Professor Cheddar decides to give them away to the first person to bring her a pair of orange Topsiders made of extra-sharp cheese.) Posted January 12, 2006... YOUR
OPINIONS NEEDED! If you've been to a Snarky show and you thought it was mind-bendingly awesome... or better yet, even if you thought Dr. 4 looked funny and Professor Cheddar forgot how to count to 16 and neither one of them could get up from their Power Stance at the end of the Robot Dance and they spilled slime on the floor... well, YOUR VOICE SHOULD BE HEARD. Help us out by swinging into super Snarky Street Team action. Visit these links if you want to write a quick review of the Snarky show to share with inquiring minds everywhere: AOL Cityguide (who STILL hasn't corrected showtimes and locations) Posted January 10, 2006... Those of you who attended the Snarky Gala Movie Premiere can attest that few things on earth are as singularly lovely as Professor Cheddar in a sparkly orange chiffon ballerina dress. BUT WE FINALLY FOUND SOMETHING EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL: SNARKY FAN ART! CLICK HERE to have a look at your Snarkophonic colleagues' breathtaking SNART works. And by all means, feel free to bring your art with you to your next Snarky show so it can be included in the gallery, too. Posted January 1, 2006... HAPPY
NEW YEAR! Dr. 4: "Best wishes 4 a New Year filled with FOURensics, FOURestry, accurate FOURcasting, FOURbearance, faithful FOURfathers, and much good FOURtune!" Professor Cheddar: "May your New Year be abundant with cheese of all kinds! Cheddar to all, and to all, a goodnight!" Ethan
the Robot:
"c:quirgtag//html.gloglog:status=smirkandsmog.anon=?" Kulashi Bug: "Darling duckies! Hope the New Year brings you leafy greens, sparkly accessories, and fulfilment of all your sciencey dreams!" Lloyne: "Yo Little Lab Coats! Surf your Snarky selves right on into a rippin' and totally tubular 2006!" Sir Lloyne: "Greetings! This New Year, you have my sincerest hopes for plenty of singing, dancing, science, and truly superior grammar." Corndog: "As some of you know, 2006 is The Year of The Snarkabing in the zodiacs of many world cultures. Therefore, much wonder and and Snarkification is in store for us all. Happy New Year!"

TABLOIDS ARE ONTO THE SNARK-A-SNOOPS! Or did Professor Cheddar get pulled over for driving the Snarky Train too fast while drinking from an open container of melted cheese? Actually, no. Instead, it's a splashy feature spread in the Orlando Sentinel. Check out today's paper (December 26, Life & Times section) for a Snarky spectacle. And thanks to Sentinel reporter and all-around great gal, Linda Shrieves, for a Super Snarky job well done! And that's not all! The East Orlando Sun featured the Snarks in a great article on December 21. Kepp an eye out.... we'll get the links for you right here asap so you can read up on the Snarky buzz yourselves.

RETURN OF THE ZEBRA! Do you hear that? Sounds sort of like Dr. 4's indigestion, or maybe the mighty thundering of distant hooves across the Savanna. Must be THE LONG-AWAITED RETURN OF THE ZEBRA.... The Zebra Room, that is. And not just the same old Zebra Room we've all come to know and love, it's an all new tricked-out decked-out souped-up supersonic mega Zebra Room. Listen guys, we're talking new theatrical lighting rig, improved sound system, comfy seating, nifty healthy snacks, loads of free parking, and even the very same stage that Elton John perfomed on at Disney! ZEBRA ROOM SHOWS START SATURDAY, JANUARY 7! Every Tuesday and Friday at 10:30, plus the first Saturday of every month at 10:30 as well. And the good news just keeps on coming. Check this out: BACK AT THE ZEBRA ROOM, SNARKY TICKET PRICE DROPS TO $4 PER PERSON! But let's not be too hasty here. Please don't forget that we still have TWO FANTASTIC SHOWS at the Sak Comedy Lab this week: 12/27 and 12/30. Enjoy the Snarkalectable Sak theater while you still can! Posted December 8, 2005... PACK
MENTALITY We here at Snarky Headquarters simply couldn't ignore the plaintive wails and heartrending cries. They've been going something like this: "Our hearts beat for Family Fun Pack!" and "Our lives are not complete without $7 family rates!" and "Bring back the missing link: FREE POPCORN!" So, because we Snarks are nothing if not merciful and compassionate, we are bringing back the fantastic Family Fun pack this Saturday, December 10, for ONE DAY ONLY. The sciencey stats are as follows... $7 flate rate gets you and your family into the show (10:30, Saturday, December 10) plus popcorn on the house! This Saturday promises to be a big day, so scroll down to read more about what's going on and to get the latest scoop on parking at the SAK... Posted December 8, 2005... BID
FOR A SQUID But by far the most exciting breaking news in the world of squids is the following: Saturday morning, December 10, the Snark-a-Snoops will deliver the lovely Mira the Squid into the arms of her benevolent new foster family. THAT FAMILY COULD BE YOURS. Just come to the show Saturday morning and fill out an OSAAF (Official Squid Adoption Application Form). During the 10:30 show, we'll be selecting a family at random to take Mira home. Mira looks a lot like Mona (except that Mona has a small mushroom-shaped birthmark on her ninth tentacle). She comes all set up, ready to dance and bop around in her own 2-liter bottle full of blue-tinted water. And get this: DEEP-SEA RUMOR HAS IT, SHE'S ONE OF THOSE EXTRA-SPECIAL SQUIDS THAT GLOW IN THE DARK. Her new family will have to report back to confirm or deny these claims... Posted November 30, 2005... SNARKARAZZI...
GET READY! IT'S A SNARKY MOVIE PREMIERE... ~~FREE ADMISSION~~ Plus take pictures with the stars, get Kulashi's autograph, do the Robot Dance with Ethan, pose for the insatiable paparazzi, and hang around FOUR a Snarkalicious green-grape-juice sprizter and orange cheddar cheese reception afterward. Snarky parents and entourage members: Cameras and fancy attire are encouraged. See you on the 10th..... AND THAT'S A WRAP, PEOPLE. Posted November 21, 2005... FREE

UPDATE! AND HERE'S SOME MORE FREE SNARKY PARKY ADVICE! Lower levels of the garage seem crowded? Drive all the way up to the roof and ride the stroller-friendly elevator in the Northwest corner... FOURtunately, it brings you right to the door of the Sak Comedy lab! Elevator out of order? Professor Cheddar will carry your kids back up to yor car after the show! Posted
November 9, 2005... Our extensive research concludes, thereFOUR, that IT'S OUR SCIENTIFIC DUTY TO OFFER LUNCH TIME WITH THE SNARK-A-SNOOPS. Each week, following the Snarky Show, the Tuesday Lunch Lab will convene and go to work RIGHT IN THE SAK THEATER. We'll be providing bag lunches (including meal, drink and prize) for $5 per lunch. Together, we'll break bread, shoot the sciencey breeze, and play with our prizes! Then we'll all pile into our minivans and take naps! Woohoo! Not sure if your young scientist will be in the mood FOUR lunch? Think you might need a venti latte at Starbucks next Tuesday morning instead? We understand. Have no fear. Play it by ear, no reservations required. If you decide to stay, all kids over one year old attending the event will be asked to purchase a lunch. (Lunch is optional for adults... but it's not likely you'll be able to pass up this delicious gourmet fare...) See you Tuesday! Posted
November 8, 2005... And for even DEEPER SAVINGS, join the boisterous Snarky Street Team. Use our Snarky referral card to tell another family about us, and when they come to their first Snarky show, you'll get a FREE TICKET to a Snarky show. Ouch, that hurts so good. Referral cards are available at all Snarky shows or by contacting us directly. Science is a way of life, HELP US TAKE IT TO THE STREETS. Posted
November 7, 2005... In fact, in an explosive expression of our unending and all-consuming sciencey thankfulness, we're extending FREE ADMISSION TO ALL GROWN-UPS at our show on Friday, November 25... the day after Thanksgiving.
