Monday night rehearsal

Rehearsing for sketch is hard. When you write something and then you rehearse it as a group, you have no idea what is going to be funny to the audience or not. You just have to trust your own sense of humor and hope that it will come through. We have 2 more rehearsals to go before the show and we know the line-up, but we don't have things memorized and there is beginning to be a sense of panic. However, the show will still be great, it always is. We are mixing sketch with short-form improv, so at least we can lean on our short-form improv skills if the sketches are not crisp. Here is a lovely promo picture of the group. From left to right: Eric Johnson, Keith Curtis, Bess Wallerstein, Wade Meredith, and Tommy Todd.

PS--After our show you can see Fakers, directed by Ed Doris, a great young group consisting of alumni from the famous Exit 16 high school improv group at Liberty High School directed by Trish Berrong.
