Following the enormous success of ABC's "Whose Line Is It Anyway?"

Colin

Mochrie and Brad Sherwood, two stars of the Emmy nominated series, have

teamed up to present an evening of improvisational comedy benefiting

the

PeaceJam Foundation. PeaceJam is an international education program

built

around 12 leading Nobel Peace Laureates who work personally with youth

to

pass on the spirit, skills, and wisdom they embody.

Since 1996, almost 200,000 youth have worked with the 12 Nobel Peace

Laureates

and learned to be leaders in their own communities.

The benefit will be an evening of outstanding comedy and music. Using

their

quick wit, Mochrie and Sherwood take contributions from the audience to

create hilarious and original scenes. Throughout the evening, the show

becomes

truly interactive as audience members are called to the stage to

participate

in the fun.

Their high-profile presentations have played to sold-out theaters and

universities all over the country. Opening the evening will be The Go,

who

are prime exponents of Detroit's legendary garage rock scene. The Go

will

play an unplugged set which will showcase their extraordinary

songwriting

skills.

More on Colin Mochrie + Brad Sherwood:

Due to the overwhelming response of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" both

Mochrie

and Sherwood can be seen performing on television over fifteen times a

week,

between ABC, Comedy Central, and ABC Family. Mochrie & Sherwood are

also

starring along with Drew Carey and other top improvisers on the "Green

Screen,"

a new improv-animated series that recently premiered on the WB network.

Colin Mochrie began his improv career when he was first introduced to

Ryan

Stiles (co-star of "The Drew Carey Show," "Whose Line Is It Anyway,"

and

"Green Screen") by a friend and the two teamed up. Shortly after doing

Expo

'86, Colin moved to Toronto. There, he auditioned for The Second City

(a

famous North American comedy theater), where Stiles was working at the

time.

Mochrie worked with The Second City ensemble for three years.

Mochrie's first appearance on "Whose Line is it Anyway?", the British

version, was in 1991. ABC TV then hired Mochrie as one of the

principals

in the American version of the smash comedy.

Mochrie's career has "taken wing." He spent last summer touring with

the

Improv All Stars, and in the fall he continued to travel with "An

Evening

with Colin Mochrie & Brad Sherwood." He's been heavily involved in

independent

and small movie projects and is even involved in "The Movie Co-Op,"

which

is a Canadian venture to help produce great Canadian movies funded by

and

run by the artists themselves. Mochrie also has a new CBC television

project

currently in development with his wife Debra McGrath.

Brad Sherwood, who is originally from Santa Fe, NM, is a regular cast

member

on ABC's "Whose Line is it Anyway?" He was also a regular for three

seasons

on the British version of "Whose Line." His past credits include "The

Drew

Carey Show," a season on "LA Law" as Jill Eikenberry's love-struck

nanny,

and a cast member on "The Newz," a critically acclaimed sketch-comedy

series.

Recently, Sherwood appeared as a regular on "To Tell the Truth," "Drew

Carey

Live" and was an Improv All-Star on Showtime's "Live from Vegas."
