AH, OK Comedy is Adam Fullerton and Heather McKinney performing all the roles of a local morning television show from hosts to cameraman to remote reporter to interviewee to bystander to whatever else is need. Wednesday night, they performed “AH, OK Presents: Good Morning Tonight” and also solicited a lot of information from an audience member.
They chose the right guy Wednesday night. Alex grew up in Englewood Cliffs, N.J., and has been on a motorcycle trek across North America since Sept. 1. Fullerton and McKinney sussed out more than enough material from Alex’s decision to leave a boring real estate job to live on the road, and his indifference to “The Sopranos” despite seemingly taking pride in mentioning Satin Dolls is the real name of the Bada Bing.
McKinney adeptly copped a Jersey accent portraying a studio host who is the boss’s daughter in more than one sense whose boyfriends keep falling down the cliffs for some reason. Fullerton feigned fear while throwing it to reporters on the scene and teasing upcoming segments/bits for the morning show/improv show. The duo worked seamlessly and hilariously, especially within one recurring thread about the foliage in New Hampshire.
