IA's Great Longform

Saturday IA had a show at Roving Imp Theater. The 7pm crowd was a great crowd. They wanted to see scenes and relationships, so right away the audience was on our side. Our suggestion was a play titled "The happy fairy who gave me meatloaf." (or something like that) Right away the title gave us plenty to work with. We wove those scenes in and out perfectly. Everyone had a great character, and the relationships were beautifully represented. Everyone knew each other and we started in the middle of the scene as opposed to the beginning. When it was over we couldn't stop smiling, we knew we put on one of the best longform pieces that IA has ever done. Thank God there is a theater in Bonner Springs, and thank God for John Robison, to have the guts to start his own theater.

Roving Imp is celebrating there 1 year anniversary on April 5th with another great show planned. I can't wait to be involved. It is an honor to be asked to participate. My only hope is that John sells out both shows, he deserves it. He has worked his butt off to get this theater off of the ground, and he has a very...very understanding wife!

In other news, the very first Kansas City improv blog post will happen soon. What does that mean? Well, any Kansas City improviser who has a blog will all be posting about the same topic. Should be coming soon...stay tuned.
