This is why improv in Kansas City is not as bad as it may seem. Thunderdome is this weekend. Why is that important? One example: Antiprov, the members include-Scott Connerly, Jessica Robins, and Joe Stephenson. These 3 people started in 3 different groups and if it wasn't for thunderdome, they probably would have never come together as a new team. It is just a cool concept to me. There are a number of teams that have spawned because of this, and I am very excited for the show this Friday. Signs point to another sold out show, so if you want to make reservations, make sure too soon. Here is the info:
Friday, February 8th
9:00pm-10:30pm
BABEL FISH - Joe Henley, John Robison & Nathan Stewart.
They know what audiences like and pander to them. When preparing for Thunderdome, they asked themselves, "What are the youth into today?" So, of course the first things that sprang to mind were Long-form improvisation, and Waiting for Godot by Samuel Becket; the rest is lowbrow, mass-consumption, entertainment history!
vs.
ANTIPROV - Scott Connerly, Jessica Robins & Joe Stephenson.
You think you know the rules of improv? We spit-take on your order, authority, and rules. Antiprov will deliver short-form improv like you've never seen before.
vs.
SCRIPTEASE - Rene Boudreaux, Drew Davidson & Clayton Ingram.
Fast-paced scenes. Quick-change characters. Rene, Drew and Clay started improvising early—and they've studied with the best from Chicago and beyond. The men of Scriptease have got the funny...and they know how to use it.
Tickets are only $8.00
(house opens 30 minutes prior to show time)

If this show is anything like the first one (Nostradamus prophesized that it would be so) it will be hilarious. Don't miss it!
In other news, here is the latest TommyandKeith video. We were inspired to make a music video using audio from video clips. Hope you like it (Yes we suffered some pain, but it was worth it)

The rehearsal went great Monday, we're all pumped and looking forward to it. It's going to be a good match up, too, I was thinking about who the audience might have voted for based on what I had seen, and we all had our good points. I guess it will probably come down to who pulls out their A game. I'm so excited!
May I tease you with a line from tonight's Scriptease rehearsal?
"I double-dog dare you to love me."
Drew, as the Young Hotshot
Um. Yeah. So it doesn't mean much out of context...but FEAR HIM.
