Thursday show cancelled

Improv-Abilities was supposed to have a show on Thursday, but only 1 person showed up. Needless to say the show was cancelled. This has been a current problem with Improv-Abilities. However, the directors of the group know that it is because we are having to many shows in a month and we are splitting up our audience. (or they are getting sick of seeing us every week) They want to scale it back to one or two shows a month, which I agree with. We have a hard time selling out one show a month let alone 3-4. We are not the only group having this problem of course. Kansas City is a tough place to put on an improv show. Tonight should be more promising. We are combining On The Spot with The Roving Imp, Poke (Trish Berrong and Tommy Todd long form) and Revolver from Chicago. If that doesn't get at least 30 people total to the coffeehouse then I give up.

Wish we could be around to help support, but we're on our way to Columbia tonight.

Oh don't worry about it Chris. I wasn't trying to lay a guilt trip on anyone. Just voicing my thoughts. I will let you know when there is a show that you can't miss!
