The cast usually includes renowned Jamaican comedians Oliver Samuels and Glen "Titus" Campbell.
The Theatre Place
The Theatre Place is Kingston's newest theatrical venue, opened in late 2009 and run by Pablo Hoilett. The theater typically puts on comedies and other plays (admission US$12).
Green Gables Theatre
Green Gables Theatre is the venue for Stages Production plays, which typically run at 8 p.m. Wednesday–Saturday and with two shows at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Sunday.
Pantry Playhouse
Pantry Playhouse (admission US$12–15) features comical productions throughout the year in a quaint outdoor setting in the heart of New Kingston. Plays usually run for three months, and performances are generally held Wednesday–Sunday. Me and Mi Chapsie, a play about older women going with younger men, was a popular play performed in 2009 and a good example of the comical lean to most of these productions.
