Yes and…

Improv show tonight. Went to support my pals at the UTCA Improv Company. Levels II and III performed. These people are funny, joyful and quick. Things I wish I was.

I took improv I a few months back as an experiment of sorts, something to get me out of the house to interact with other people. I didn’t do well at all. I lack a performance gene. I’m afraid of failure, spontaneity scares me and quite honestly I lack a sense of joyfulness. All qualities an improv performer should possess. My classmates are naturals. Seeing them thrive melts my cold heart.

The openers for tonight’s show were from a local improv collective; they were on stage a really long time. I was hoping to see more of the local talent perform. Utica is full of so many funny people. Looking forward to seeing more from UTCA Improv Company soon.
