Plugging for Others

Hey!
So, here we are. The end of another week, I think. I haven't ventured far past my neighborhood from Sunday to Wednesday. Yesterday was my first day back on campus since the previous week. Fun! After being yelled at by my boss over a list of props the director of Anne Frank requested (for the record, gold-plated frames and strawberries are not worth yelling about at 10:30 in the morning. I'm just sayin'...), I finished my classes at 3, helped set up, attended, and helped clean up the KCC Theatre Club's first meeting/social (people need to learn the art of taking leftover). Once that was finished, I got to go home and rot my mind listening to Sarah Palin speak during the VP debates! Anyone else sick of hearing about the wonderful state of Alaska? I thought so.

Let's fast forward. I've just come from the Peoples Improv Theater (PIT) in Manhattan where my favorite improv group, Centralia, had their first show in three months. These guys have been working together for 12 years. They've taken longform improv and turned it into great theatre. I HIGHLY recommend their next performance to anyone who wants to see a good show.

Buy your tickets in advance, they tend to sellout (oh, yeah. They're THAT good).

Speaking of the PIT, I found out earlier this evening that I'll be part of the running crew for one of their shows opening next week. Which show is this, you ask? Another improv show? Actually, no. It's a talk show! The Matt Fried Hour. (choir of angels) It opens next Saturday night at the PIT. The show will regularly feature a sketch act written by Matt and writing partner Chris O'Neil, a comedy guest, a non-comedy guest, and a musical act. The show is based on New York culture, so anyone who lives here will understand what is going on during the show (hopefully ;))
So, again. The Matt Fried Hour, next Satruday, 11:00 pm, the Peoples Improv Theater. You need more info, click here: http://www.thepit-nyc.com/daily.html?y=2008&m=10&d=17
I expect to here that you were there! I won't be able to tell from backstage, so people will be spying for me! HA!
