About the event
Ben Hilzer and Gary John Miller have been comedy collaborators for over 9 years after working on "Army & Coop" in 2015. They've made dozens of online comedy sketches, a low-fi comedy special called "Ben & Gary: Currency", and are members of the comedy quartet "The Dads" who perform live sketch comedy in the Denver-metro area. @thedadscomedy
Jayme Cole and Ben Hilzer have been artistic collaborators for almost 15 years and co-founded Letterpress Films in 2021. Their first film, "Clink. Shoot.", a thriller about two brothers, enjoyed a nice festival run in 2022 and 2023. www.letterpressfilmsco.com
Ben proposed the premise of "Streaming" to Gary in the summer of 2022 after watching "Rocky" and thought of a funny spoof they could do...which turned into a 30 minute comedy special idea called "Ben & Gary: Streaming." After enlisting Letterpress Films co-founder Jayme Cole, Ben and Gary finished writing the script at the end of 2022, the trio began principal photography in May 2023, completed principal photography in October 2023, and finished editing and post-production in June 2024. They cast actors Jack Anderson and Sam Butler of THE DADS, Caitlin Hilzer, and child actor Reagan Sittko to co-star in the special - and boy are they good in it.
