COMEDY

Check out Jonah Platt (C’08 Off The Beat) in this hilarious Funny Or Die clip, “Here’s How You’re Getting F*cked”! Hint: white heterosexual males are doing okay.

THEATER
If you’re in LA this weekend, come out to see Lindsey Rosin’s (C’07) SEXT ME MAYBE, an original TV pilot, written and directed by Lindsey. Also starring fellow Penn alum Jonah Platt (C’08). Lindsey’s piece is part of Polly Garter Productions’ GET IT UP ONSTAGE, a night of television performed onstage at the Hudson Backstage Theater in Hollywood.

MUSIC
NYC Singer-Songwriter (and Penntertainment favorite) Jessica Pomerantz (C’02, PennPals, 34th Street. Visions President, Spanish Club, French Club, West Philly Tutoring) has taken to the web to raise funds for her first professionally recorded EP. Check out her mock “Inside the Music” style show about crowdfunding focuses on singer/songwriter Jessica Pomerantz. And be sure to check out snippets of some of her great music here (our favorite being “Rockbottom”).

DIGITAL

Penn parent and president of Conde Nast Entertainment Dawn Ostroff oversees 100 digital series and she has some advice for you. Check out the video, below to learn more about her experience with audience-fragmentation from on-air to other platforms, as well as their digital marketing strategy.

AND FINALLY…

A very special thanks goes to Joel Rubin (C’03, Mask and Wig) for the newest Penn Alumni You Should Know About graphic!
