Theater We Saw: Dukes & Pepper Slit

<p>Connor and Joey take on two comedies from SNL talent playing small downtown rooms this summer. First is <em>Dukes</em>, Jane Wickline and Liva Pierce&#39;s plotless, bit-driven show about two best friends who can&#39;t function apart, recently closed at Soho Playhouse. Then <em>Pepper Slit: Live in Her Living Room</em> at the East Village Basement—Chloe Troast as a washed-up silent-film diva trying to keep her show going while the movers pack up around her.</p><p>Plus the <em>Hadestown</em> screen capture&#39;s big box office, Soho Playhouse&#39;s brutal seats, and the fading era of the SNL movie.</p><p><br></p><p>Keep us with us on instagram at @houseclosedpod </p>
