I wrote about this last year and it’s back in Boston again this year, the Women In Comedy Festival! I’m a hug fan of the festival, they always put on a bunch of really good shows, host a bunch of workshops, and just bring in a whole bunch of talent from all over the place.… Continue reading The Women In Comedy Festival

One Year In Improv
One year ago today I took my first improv class. It was the first of 8, 3-hour long sessions in 5 days with the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York. Living in Boston, I needed to take advantage of the “intensive” program for Improv 101. I took a week off from work and stayed… Continue reading One Year In Improv

Okay, fine, drawing a circle is easier than drawing 70% of a circle and cutting it off at certain points but not that much easier. If someone is… Continue reading You’d Better Bring Your Wetsuit

I also like… Continue reading Save the Haddock
