Alternative Medicine

Bored Doctors, Experimental Drugs, Naughty Androids. Oh, my!
Following the inevitable apocalypse, the Doctors of Nysmith are hunkered in the bunker with their assortment of androids, waiting for the surface world to be safe again. With the discovery of an untested drug (Chemical Whatever) and no viable subjects in sight, the Doctors decide to test it on themselves because “it can’t be that bad, right?”

Oh, yes. Oh, yes it can.

Alternative Medicine is an absurdist sketch comedy group hailing from New York City featuring Marty Chandler, Colleen Granberg, Brian Martin, Sofia Pastena, Katie Redden, and Patrick Walsh. In 2025, they held a sold-out 8 month residency at NYC’s The PIT, and made their off-Broadway debut at The Theater Center (NYC).
