IMPRODOME 10/7/05

We learned some things, among them is: Diana's inner voice is Shawn. Hardy Boys. The first scene degenerated into trite homosexuality. Scene about chasing girls meandered. It took too long for Mom and Dad scene to get to point. Old English. Hostage scene started with good emotional tone, then degenerated into silliness. (shooting holes in hippo collection). Good scene work in bar. Plush. Good use of monologue. Nice play with smoking and language, mexican food and air freshener. The second monologue lead to a scene that did not get to the point. The salutarian scene had a good dynamic. Oven Mit Parade. Good emotional committment in first scene, the scene meandered. The uncle scene had good potential and built a new emotional tone. Handicapped scene was too funny to be creepy. Flight of the Blazak. Excellent scene work and emotional tone in Diner. Good segue into robbing diner. Ernie's epic journey was silly; it worked and it was very funny. Intruder. The first scene with Police was confusing, truth in comedy was lost. A good attempt at redemption was made with second beat near end of set. French scene was good group game. The scene started with silliness, but gained emotional tone, and created a reality. Whites of Their Eyes. The rollercoaster scene meandered and did not get to the point. The pool scene with a second head sprouting from shoulder was silly, but did manage to get laughs. Penis mention at end was overdone. Scenes with money and college were silly but showed a desire to find a universal truth to communicate to audiance. Premoisened. Excellent emotional tone: from getting high, to tupperware party to prostate removal. Good final line: "Sorry I slept with your brother." Over all this was a high energy, fun to be at event.
