A Night At The Inprov ! (is that correct grammer?)
Picture was in the paper
I Guess it will have some sort of funny caption...or whatever, they certainly picked an awsome picture!
Had a more successful improv show than I thought I would. The entire thing was a little rushed, because the individual who planned and started it wanted to make sure she could participate before she had to leave. Of course as luck would have it she ended up having to leave a lot sooner than planned, her project falling to the people she at first had asked only to "help out."
It was hectic, and probably could have gone better (this could be the projectionist within me talking). But if nothing else I think it has taught me who I can depend on when things get a little rough, or more to the point, I know now who I cannot count on. I don't understand how some people confronted with responsibility just quit in their own minds before they even get started.
Good things that came out of this include,
Almost everybody who came to the show signed up or were interested in the theatre group
Everyone who came looked thoroughly entertained, a lot even said we should make this a reoccurring event
And best of all, I had fun
On the more narcissistic over analytical side, the show made me think a little bit about my place in this world. This particular improv event was organized as a contest (not my idea), and at the end judges picked there favorite. We had the audience applaud for their favorite as well. One of the other guys in the cast ended up winning, he deserved it, he’s animated, creative, and funny, but like I said, it got me thinking about my place in this whole thing. I took over the project when the other girl had to leave, made sure we had judges, helped work out which games we were going to have in the show, and made sure a whole host of other things went how they were supposed to. These things I do happily, but I realized that I don't think I will ever be the star, that one face who you remembered out of the whole show. I seem to be destined to be the person that never gets as noticed but makes sure it all goes as planned, or at least as close as possible.
Don't get me wrong I'm not complaining, but...I suppose deep down inside I always wanted to be that shining star.
