The Firesign Theatre is a comedy troupe consisting of Phil Austin, Peter Bergman, David Ossman, and Philip Proctor. The troupe began as live radio performers in Los Angeles, California on radio stations KPPC and KPFK during the late 1960s and early 1970s.The name is an astrological reference: The members consist of an Aries (Austin), a Leo (Proctor), and two Sagittarians (Bergman and Ossman). The name also is intended as a pun on "Fireside Theatre," a popular radio show from the nineteen-thirties. It also puns on the "Fireside Chats" of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the 1930's, and "firesign" was also the name for neon lights in the early 20th century .Called "The Beatles of Comedy" by their admirers, the Firesign Theatre specialize in audio recordings, having had relatively little presence in stage performance, television or movies. Their first four albums in particular are considered classics of recorded comedy. (Each of those four albums features a different one of the four members in a leading role.)While their free-flowing, stream of consciousness style has the feel of improvisational comedy and may derive from improvisational processes, most of it actually is tightly scripted and memorized (a situation not unlike that of Britain's Monty Python troupe, to whom Firesign are often compared). They have employed a writing method that demands the consent of all four members before a line can be included. Much of their work has been copyrighted under the name "4 or 5 Crazee Guys," reflecting their collective sentiment that there is a "fifth guy in the room" who actually is doing all the writing.Because of their complexity, Firesign recordings tend to become funnier with repeated listenings as new jokes are revealed, and their high production values provide an additional layer of aesthetic pleasure that endears them to audiophiles. Similarly, Firesign Theatre productions take place in a satirical world with many subtle and oblique references to mass culture which fans enjoy decoding. See A Firesign Theatre lexicon for the perplexed.In 1972 and 1974, Straight Arrow Press published two books authored by The Firesign Theatre. These books, The Firesign Theatre's Big Book Of Plays and The Firesign Theatre's Big Mystery Joke Book, contain scholarly information, satirical introductions, and parodic histories, as well as transcriptions of many of the performances from their first seven albums. A later work, also authored by the group and published by a small press, was titled The Apocalypse Papers and was limited to an edition of only 500 copies
