Pinch and Squeal (Jason and Danielle Tilk) are a musical neo-vaudeville duo that bring you whimsical hilarity, clichéd sentimentality, kamikaze alcoholism and old-wheeze jokes. We have taken our signature blend of insanity from Brooklyn to Dubuque. We play a trunk full of instruments. We sing provocative and wacky songs that get stuck in your head.We tell extraordinary bad jokes that you hate to laugh at, dazzle with bad magic, and bring forth insanity from our suitcase! Together they created WIZBANG! that went from stage shows, theatre tent creation to now a full brick and mortar theatre in Cleveland Heights Oh

 "Pinch and Squeal is a duo that has mastered the art of flirting with bad taste and vintage buffoonery. It's Penn and Teller meets Burns and Allen. The laughter of the vulgar and the vindicated — and the groans of the oppressed — shall ring out during this vaudeville-style show. Editors Pick Frank De Blasé Rochester City News
"I saw two shows last night, and both of them, though different, are now on my recommendation list. Cirque Du Fringe peppers its performances with classic cornball humor, but Cleveland banjo and accordion  duo Pinch and Squeal wallows in it. I mean this is "fill–the–bathtub-with-gin-and-gasoline-and-light-it-on-fire-before-doing-a-cannonball" wallowing in it." They opened with a couple of dirty ditties from the 1920's and one from the early days of “Hee Haw,” complete with a harmonized Bronx cheer, before going into card and balloon tricks, a tirade in Pig Italian (no, not Latin, Italian) that made no sense whatsoever, and a beautiful French love ballad where Squeal attempted to stick two audience members in her party dress.. Ah, show business. I laughed my head off. "Review from opening night of Rochester Fringe festival '17 by Frank DeBlase
