Peoples Improv Theater 9/17/05

MR. RESISTOR degenerated into trite gayness at the onset of their performance, which morphed into angry quasi-heterosexualtiy. There was a good emotional edge, with nice flow. As often happens with improv, Mr. Resistor, left truth in comedy behind. As a result, their time on stage was not as enjoyable as it could have been. They used split scene technique well. Cuts were good with a nice flow. They needed to bring up more energy: more coffee, longer warm-up. Nice Spanish scene. Nice second beat on robbery and kidnapping scene. PYGMEE MARMALADE did not stay true to principle of truth in comedy. In particular the space ship scene degenerated into silly gayness. There was a lack of real emotional edge. There was a nice flow in their presentation, with good cuts. The Monster scene was ridiculous, but it worked. Good second beat on Monster scene.
