The Canadian quintet that rose to fame with their television series "The Kids in the Hall" from 1989-1994 are returning to the live stage once more. The sketch comedy troupe who toured two years ago will embark upon a North American "Tour of Duty 2002" March 28 with a stop in New York City's Beacon Theatre April 14-15.

Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney and Scott Thompson comprise The Kids in the Hall. (Off-Broadway audiences may recall McKinney's turns in A Flea in Her Ear and Fuddy Meers.)

"Kids In The Hall: Same Guys, New Dresses" premiered at the Aspen Comedy Festival in March 2001.
