The Marvelous Mrs. Shenkman is a comedy special starring a real-life Mrs. Maisel. April Hava Shenkman is flocked out of her mind, pregnant and turning 40--what's she going to do? Throw herself a baby shower with puppets. This quirky comedy special is a heart-to-heart intimate glimpse into the psyche of an absurdist comedienne answering the "last call" to become a mommy; exploring the identity crisis of an artist turning into a mother, and what it's like having a baby at 40. A celebration of life and art in a rare collaboration with the world-famous Bob Baker Marionettes. Mommy in Los Angels Magazine said "April Hava Shenkman's comedy literally gives birth to a new comedy genre all on its own. Her vastly vocalized performances infuse golden era star impersonations, speed talking, operatic impromptus, gibberish, and jokes, of course. Making her a comedy singular sensation."

Best in Show

At the prestigious Mayflower Dog Show, a "documentary film crew" captures the excitement and tension displayed by the eccentric participants in the outrageously hilarious satire Best In Show. This biting send-up exposes the wondrously diverse dog owners who travel from all over America to showcase their four-legged contenders. Mild-mannered salesman Gerry Fleck (Eugene Levy) and his vivacious wife, Cookie (Catherine O'Hara), happily prepare their Norwich Terrier, while shop owner Harlan Pepper (Christopher Guest) hopes his Bloodhound wins top prize. As two upwardly mobile attorneys (Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock) anxiously ready their neurotic Weimaraner and an ecstatically happy gay couple (Michael McKean and John Michael Higgins) dote on their tiny Shih Tzu, inept commentator Buck Laughlin (Fred Willard) vainly attempts to provide colorful tidbits about each breed.
