Fragile
Bryn Woznicki is this super talented director currently tearing things up over at CSUN. A lot of times, you agree to do a student project and you end up with something you're going to have to relegate to the "life experiences" file folder in your head.
But this? Bryn is amazing and I'm really proud to have been invited to be a part of it. Bonus! I got to act with my 1st improv teacher and current director Joseph Limbaugh, who is super cool and, in my opinion, knocks it out of the park.
Bryn was so fantastic about making us feel really comfortable on set and breaking things down for us into bite sized little emotional pieces. Because of my physical type, I usually play the wacky neighbor, not the romantic lead in things, so I got to do some stuff outside of my normal bag of tricks. As fair warning for the faint of heart (and any family members), right around 2:38 there's some kissy stuff.
I, for one, welcome Bryn's eminent takeover of the entire entertainment industry. She's already on her way!

Young Me Now
Last year (June 25, 2010 to be exact), Keith Coogan (Adventures in Babysitting, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter is Dead, and all around good guy) came out to The Acme Comedy Theater to fight some zombies in Hollywood Dream Role.
A few weeks ago, he returned to the Acme to fight some villians in our Acme Experiment - Murder by Acme show (an all improvised noir murder mystery)
We're so Young Me Now.
For more pictures, here's a collection of some photos taken by Rob Wood over the season http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyduck/sets/72157626296027368/.

Friday, April 8th - Celebrity Improv Mashup with Patrick Muldoon and Terri Ivens
Howdy Howdy Howdy folks! This Friday, April 8th at 9:00PM Celebrity Improv Mashup is pleased to welcome Patrick Muldoon of "Starship Troopers" and Terri Ivens of "All My Children" to the Acme Stage. We had our workshop last night and these two owned it! Wear your best bobby socks and poodle skirts is all I'm sayin'. :)
Then, for anyone who cares, we're going to be dark Easter weekend (4/22) to ensure we all have time to hit Target and stockpile our fallout shelters with enough Cadbury eggs to get us through the coming Apocolypse. May 21th, right? I should probably do laundry. It would be SO embarassing to be stuck in my granny underwear for all eternity.
Then the theater will be dark for all of May to make way for the LA Comedy Festival.
I guess what I'm trying to say is you've got three more chances to catch the show before we go on break. Plan accordingly.

Gotta love a girl whose dream role is to be a super hero. In addition to her secret identity, Alison Haislip was super cool. See what I just did there?
