Getting Started (1996 - 1997)
Shillelagh Theatrical Company was created by Robert Umphlet, Jimi Doss and David Herbert in November 1996. It started as voice recording's on a PC. The first sketch was the Farm Animal sketch, one the group disliked because of it just being silly and it really didn't make any sense. After messing around with voice recording's, the trio grabbed a camcorder and decided to act out the sketch. Not long after that, Robert Umphlet and Jimi Doss started typing up ideal sketches to record and make a show.

The trio's biggest influence was Monty Python. A lot of earlier Shillelagh Theatrical Company sketches were done with English(UK) accents due to their love of Monty Python. The trio watched a lot of Python and would come to almost know all of their sketches my memory. Before filming their first real movie of sketches they wrote down half the script of Robin Hood: Men in Tights by watching it off the TV. Then they would assign characters and act the scenes out. Once they felt more comfortable with each others acting skills they then proceeded to start their first of three features called Stairway to Upstairs.
