Updates for You!

Hello Loyal reader!
You know who you are.. :)

Here are some updates for you!

Well I finished C.U.Next.Tuesday: The Amy Fisher Story: A Karaoke Musical here in Chicago. It was, in my opinion, a success. Very funny, very exciting, and definitely different than anything one has seen, it entertained many people on every show night.

Unfortunately we didn't get a real review of the show, other than a little blurb in the Reader that said the "Joey Buttafuoco joke was old". Although it can be argued as "true". I beg to differ. In the last few months Amy Fisher AND dear ol Joey have been in the news. One for a crazy sex-tape, another just for getting married. Or at least I think so, he was on TMZ and how much can you believe from gossip websites?

So old news or not, this show was very topical. Either way we never said it was supposed to be an A&E sympathy story. ..
But I digress..

During the C.U.Next.Tuesday show I was also working on (writing and rehearsing) another sketch show with my all girl team The Doppelgang.


The Doppelgang!
NO BALLS : A Sketch Comedy Revue
From high-brow sketches, about the interpersonal relations of math functions, to a series of non-stop dong jokes, The DoppelGang's "No Balls" is a comedic smorgasbord that is high minded about taking the low road. Song and dance numbers, political satire, comedy noir and yes, some girly sketches, make for an entertaining and hilarious Thursday night. This show is sure to captivate, cultivate and copulate with the audience. That's right, this show will make babies with you if you watch it.

Guess what? It opens NEXT THURSDAY...

(Yes I've had 2 Thursdays off, one I actually relaxed in, yet another I have a tech rehearsal. Thats the way I like it. )

So, if you do actually read this blog...and you are in Chicago...

The DoppelGang: No Balls. A Sketch Comedy Revue
Every Thursday in April
9:30pm $10
Gorilla Tango Theatre (my second home)
1919 N. Milwaukee Ave.

Gorillatango.com has tickets for ya.

I have also been having a great time with my improv team Roboctopus. We are currently rehearsing and performing at the CIC Theatre (as usual) and also applying for some awesome improv festivals.

There is something magical about my team and I think its the overall love of creating and the absense of jealousy and politics. And boy am I glad I have them as friends...

If you read this before this Saturday (March 29th) We have a show at the CIC Theatre (1420 Irving Park Rd) at 10:30! So come see us! Woo hoo!


Well thats it from me. Take it easy Mr. Sneezy.
