improvised dining utensils

today was a good day.
an intense day, but a good one.
today was my spoons 4 forks debut.

for you clueless non olivetians, spoons 4 forks is our improv comedy troupe. it's pretty popular here on campus, even though it's really just a handful of glorified drama nerds playing theatre games. we had a pretty full house tonight, probably 100+.... which i'd say is quite a bit for a group of random kids running around and speaking in odd accents.

it's still pretty strange to think that i'm a member of the troupe and not the audience. this performance came so quickly... auditions were only two weeks ago, and we've been practicing twice a week since then, with an extra one earlier today. basically, we "newbs" had 5 practices before the show. not that you can really practice for an improv show. that fact didn't help my nerves at all. regardless, i feel like we all did a pretty good job. lots of laughs. our president/leader/groupmommy of sorts, matt, said that this show had the most consistent audience reaction ever - we didn't really have any dead games and the energy remained pretty high throughout.

good to know.
looking forward to next month's performance.

that, and sleep.
especially after 6 hours of improv.
like i said, intense.
