Like a roller coaster (in the good way)

So I did this show tonight at M Bar, a staged radio show sort of thing, with a group of people I admire and really enjoy working with. It was the strangest sensation doing this show. Normally, when I'm on stage, I have a good sense as to whether the audience is enjoying what I'm doing, and how I can adjust on the fly to get them on board if they aren't. With this show, because I was partially off-book, partially on-book and completely blinded, so I couldn't actually connect with any of the audience members.

It was so much fun to do, though. I got to interact with someone whose comedy I really respect - the whole experience felt like I was getting called up from the minors.

Bring the next one on, boys.

Lots of things going on right now:

I've been involved with a show called Big News at the ImprovOlympic West, which goes up, rain or shine, every Thursday night at 8pm. Come see it.

More urgently, I have a show at Second City called Americo the Beautiful. It closes this weekend - come see that also. It's right next to the world famous Improvisation comedy club. 9:30pm. Only $5.

I'm working on a another show right now, but we won't be performing again until July. Stay tuned for info on that.
