MARGARET CHO: REVOLUTION
Out now on DVD

Filmed live at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles in 2003, REVOLUTION is comedian Margaret Cho's triumphant return to the screen with the same unbridled, no-holds-barred humour that infused her previous two concert films.

In REVOLUTION, Margaret tackles the Axis of Evil, her travels through Thailand's red light district, the explosion of child birth, bartering sex for household chores, revolutionizing one's self-esteem, the joy of bodily functions, her loser ex-boyfriend, and of course, her now world-famous mother. Known as much for her social activism as she is for her raunchy humour, Margaret is a one-of-a-kind phenomenon who once again brings her distinctive and empowering personal voice to her devoted and adoring fans.

MARGARET CHO: NOTORIOUS C.H.O.
Out now on DVD

Filmed live in Seattle, NOTORIOUS C.H.O. is Margaret Cho's hilarious follow-up to her hit comedy sensation I'M THE ONE THAT I WANT. This hugely successful one-woman show toured 37 cities in North America and closed with a sold-out performance at New York's Carnegie Hall.

A brilliant, taboo-busting comedian in the spirit of Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor and George Carlin, Margaret Cho is known as much for her raunchy humour as she is for her enormous contributions as a social equalizer.

"Outrageous! A one-woman comic army...with seemingly limitless wit at her command." - Los Angeles Times

MARGARET CHO: CHO DEPENDENT
Out now on DVD

Margaret Cho's sixth stand-up concert film, CHO DEPENDENT, finds Cho in her usual top form, riffing on smart topics that actually matter. Filmed live at the historic Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA (where the comedian also lives part time while filming Drop Dead Diva), CHO DEPENDENT shares a name with and includes performances from Cho's Grammy nominated album of comedy songs.

With fresh family stories about her mother and her grandparents, Cho also takes aim at the Palins, her stint on Dancing With the Stars, cruising in the south, smoking pot and living in a world with 'sexting.' Honest, passionate and hilarious, CHO DEPENDENT is simply Margaret Cho at her very best.

NOTORIOUS C.H.O.: A film of Cho's one-woman stand-up show, in which she presents her take on modern sexual topics and minority issues. REVOLUTION: Cho's triumphant return to the screen with the same unbridled, no holds-barred humour that infused her previous two concert films.

MARGARET CHO: BEAUTIFUL
Out now on DVD

Learning to love her luscious self over the past forty years, comedian Margaret Cho realized that the eye of the beholder doesn't hold all the power when it comes to beauty. Our tastes may be groomed by the media, but how we feel about how we look brings our self-image into focus. Armed with something more potent than lip gloss - a mouth so shocking and raunchy it should be stamped with a warning - Cho toured America with her manifesto: "This show is really about how we should feel beautiful. When you feel beautiful, you're going to have more of a willingness to use your voice to speak."

Shot at the Long Beach Terrace Theater, Cho's latest stand-up concert film, BEAUTIFUL, explores the good, bad, and downright ugly in beauty, and the unattractive politicians and marketers who shape our world.
