Regardless, they are the principal members of the hilarious two-man, Shakespearean, comic-swordfighting duo Hack and Slash. Epitomizing the idiom of the swashbuckling action hero and the idiom of the er...um idiot, their shows pit them against one another in a non-stop, steel-ringing, joke cracking, hand-kissing, projectile-dodging, ale-swilling, collect-calling, sister-kissing extravaganza of raucous jackenapery! ("Honey, keep your sticky fingers off of my nice clean jackenaperies!") Shakespearean wit and banter, action swordplay and outrageous stunts ranging from whips and guns to crossbows and cabbages are the order of business as Sir Nigel Hack, "the richest most handsome knight in the realm, gentleman adventurer and god among men" and Slash Montant, "squire for hire, constant soldier, sometime poet, not nearly often enough lover and fashion-plate deity" weave their tangled web of deceit, trickery, violence and comedy upon one another; a web that the audience is sure to become ensnared by! (If you wanna get metaphorical and end your sentence in a preposition and use italics on the word "and" several times before it's all over.)

Hack and Slash are all over the place. They perform their comedy swordfighting shows at Rennaisance Festivals, comedy clubs and private events all over the U.S.A. and Canada. Why they're even contracted by Lucasfilm to do a feature film in 2002! (..not really, but it flowed really well when I wrote it. Plus, anyone just skimming the page will read the words in bold and thusly, quite honestly, mistake them for international mega-stars.) Comedy Swordfighting! Who ever heard of such a thing? Well, you, for one, if you read the above paragraph, which starts, "Regardless, they are the principal members.....yadda, yadda.
