How Ironic

The day I complain about bad communication at one improv show, the other show excels in communication. Saturday night was an Improv-Abilities show at Lucky Brew Grille. Low attendance as usual, but great show. We all received an email a week before the show telling us what games were going to be in the show, we then rehearsed it very well on Tuesday at rehearsal. Sure it was planned out, but everyone was on the same page and the show was smooth because of it. The games were played due to players strengths, not because someone wanted to play a certain game that night. After the show we said thank you to the audience for a good 10 minutes, and then we went backstage and got notes from Timmy, who watched the show with the audience, it was great to get feedback directly after the show. It was fresh in my mind and he gave us constructive criticism. I love learning what worked and what didn't, it helps me become a better improviser. Just another reason I think that IA is on the brink of becoming a better improv group.
