My awesome show
OK, so a show I’m a co-producer for and performer in is opening tonight and it’s freaking awesome. Let me count the ways:
- The show itself is incredible. We improvise and film an entire movie faster than you can watch it. Ponder that mind-blowing concept for a moment.
- We’ve done several runs of the show and always gotten excellent reviews.
- We’re in a new venue that seems tailor-made for our unique show — the Improv Kitchen is a restaurant (the food is great) with big flat-screen TVs at every table and an insane amount of tech in a studio next door.
- This new run was directed by Lillian Frances, a great director whose other current show, Sirens‘ Paso Doble, is Critic’s Choice in this week’s Reader.
- The cast is amazing. I wonder sometimes how I got all these great people to work with me.
- We make a movie. While you are watching it.

Break a leg Fuzzy!
Makes me think of Spaceballs:
Dark Helmet: What the Hell am I looking at?! When does this happen in the movie?!
Col. Sandurz: Now! You’re looking at “now,” sir. Everything that happens now is happening “now.”
Dark Helmet: What happened to “then?”
Col. Sandurz: We passed it.
Dark Helmet: When?
Col. Sandurz: Just now. We’re at now “now.”
Dark Helmet: Go back to “then.”
Col. Sandurz: When?
Dark Helmet: Now.
Col. Sandurz: Now?!
Dark Helmet: Now!
Col. Sandurz: I can’t.
Dark Helmet: Why?
Col. Sandurz: We missed it.
Dark Helmet: When?
Col. Sandurz: Just now.
Dark Helmet: When will “then” be “now?”
Col. Sandurz: Soon.
Dark Helmet: How soon?
Oh, Nikkos, *I* was going to wish him a broken leg. Fuzzy, I hope your foot breaks, too!
