i love the top shelf chappies and the top shelf chappies rule the world
Hey everyone I love.
Just had an amazing, amazing night. The Chappies had a show at the Magnet that we put a lot of work into. And it went incredibly well. Like - much better than any of us thought it would go. Like - the audience loved it and there were a lot of them. There to see us, and there to see the other group that went with us, and even the other people who weren't there to see us liked us!
It reassured a lot of stuff for me. Important stuff. Like the fact that I should be doing comedy in New York. That I have a voice that is vital and that people enjoy. I think all of the Chappies feel a lot better about our instincts, and that is important. This wasn't just a show for our friends with us fooling around. Being at the Magnet gave how we feel about comedy a sort of legitimacy that I think we all needed right now.
For me, trusting my instincts was all about trusting the other four members of my sketch group. And my instincts paid off. It made me feel like some of the choices I've made in the last few years were the right ones. The show made me feel smart and cool and most of all legitimate. And I haven't felt that for a while.
I made the right choice, spending this amount of time with these people, who I love so much. We just did wonderful work. I made the right choice, going off with the people who I loved the most and attempting to make the summer last the entire year.
This show goes down on my list of my favorite shows I've ever gotten to be involved with. And that's a short list (and with some digging, you can find some dear diaries about all of them on this blog). The list is me directing Dream Operator in the summer of 2000, UBC Improv's Last show in the Spring of 2002, doing the Vancouver Improv Fest with Kaitlin that first time around in 2006 and this show. So that's pretty special. I literally have the greatest comedy boyfriends in the entire world.
I also just realized that I left the bar we were at tonight without paying my tab. Guess I owe some comedy boyfriends some money.
