"Pink Things & Ponies" will continue to run through the month of September on Saturday evenings at 8pm.

Following the success of SKP's last show, "Dinosaurs Aren't Real," Wild Turkey Bourbon and Boodles Gin will continue to endorse SKP for "Pink Things and Ponies." SKP promotes Wild Turkey and Boodles in its sketches and at its shows whenever possible, including as part of the group's consistent closing song, "We Like To Drink."

Slightly Known People is a New York City-based sketch group that has been performing in and around the NYC area since May 2004. SKP writes and performs original musical and non-musical sketches ranging from the awkward and confusing to the dark and foreboding. The five group members collaborate on writing, directing, and performing all material.

Wild Turkey Bourbon is America's best-selling, premium bourbon. Carefully crafted in the heart of Kentucky, Wild Turkey uses the finest natural ingredients and time-honored distilling traditions to create its distinctive, superior taste.

Boodles is a gin of unique contradictions. It is a young brand with a long history, combining all of the classic virtues with trend-setting impudence and maintaining a discrete profile alongside the devout following of spirits connoisseurs and industry experts.
