Support a New Troupe...

Post by HerrHerr »

...Leading Brands!

Their first show is tonight in the threefer. I love these cats: Sara, Amy, Gene, Eric, Frank, James and someone else who I haven't met yet, but Iwho know exists. So, on your way out to green beers, stop by and show some love if you can.

There's also a couple of other cool troupes playing who I dig a lot, but I cannot remember who...

Remember that first show you played?

I honestly don't remember the first ED32 show, but I will definately be there to see these cats in action. I've seen all of them improvise before but never together. I've been looking forward to seeing this show for a while now. And the other shows for the night are:

I saw all of the shows at the Hideout tonight and the Leading Brands were definitely a high point. Great job guys, can't wait to see more from you.

Great show Leading brands and kudos to Chris Allen and the Mortals for the flowers and cigars.
I love the way that new troupes are being welcomed into our community. Back when we did our first show, all we got as a congratulations was "We need more waffles! Hurry up and make more waffles!" Then Andy C. whipped us until we passed out. Ahhh. Those were the days.

Thanks, Wes.

Yeah, the whole threffer was sweet. Every troupe did great. Improv is stepping up all around. To have that kind of a first show should make Leading Brands proud. What a fun night!

I have to head off to the fantasy world of Massachusetts now. I hear the windows are made of cheese. Hope it's mozzerella.

Wow! What a great experience!

With all that love and support, it felt impossible to fail.

Thanks to Chris and Foolish Mortals for your words of encouragement
before the show, the great intro, and the flowers and cigars afterwards.

I love the evil pirate duckies, IFE! I'm looking forward to your first show.

This is better than being in Massachusetts!

That was a seriously sweet show. The audience was going apeshit the whole time the Leading Brands were on stage.

And Parallelogramophonograph knocked out a nice little period longform with great fast-paced editing.

Polite Society did something, but whatever.
