    The Water Coolers: Profile

    People like to talk about themselves. They also love to hear stories about experiences familiar to them. The famous theme song from Cheers said it best, "Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name." In our view, that's what meetings and events are all about and why they are so important -- they reconnect people by reminding them of the things that they share. But in our case, we help people laugh at those things. Out loud.

    We take that yearning for the familiar, add hilarious comedy, original music and parodies of familiar songs, and use NYC comics and singers to celebrate the crazy, funny, maddening and yet somehow universally comforting insanity of every day life. We created the act originally for the meetings industry but, since our Off Broadway run in 2002, The Water Coolers has found an enthusiastic and devoted audience in the mainstream entertainment world.

    Constantly updating our material is an ongoing process, since people approach us with ideas for songs at every show we do. The interesting thing is, say a song idea is given to us at an event for senior management in Seattle. We'll develop it and, when we perform months later for a convention of sales reps in Boston, someone will run up to us exclaiming, "Hey! That’s my life! You nailed it!" It seems that by musically and hilariously celebrating what everyone goes through, The Water Coolers are providing, for a few minutes anyway, that place where everybody knows your name.
