get up reviewed by the chron

Post by erikamay »

this shit is overdue.

my personal editorial:
i think shana and shannon do some of the best (and most consistently outstanding and pleasing) work in town. they haven't gotten as many props inside and outside of the communitay as i think they deserve (at least since i've been here in 2005+), so big ups on this profile/review.

i caught the SVT show, and it was indeed dyNOmite.

high fives for some awesome improv and deserved recognition, you talented mutherfuckahs.

I built a little house for Shannon and Shana inside of my heart. They will always be two of my favorite improvisers.

yeehaw!

Brenner's a great friend to the AIC, but the living, breathing work ethic of Shannon/Shana is greater.

New teams take heed, writeups like this are not lucky events, they are not favors! They are the result of hard work and the pursuit of excellence in our craft. do it do it do it!

Yay for Shana and Shannon!

At the end of the piece about Junk last week, The Chronicle said it had plans to do an article about a different troupe for the next 12 weeks. Junk was the first troupe. Get Up is the second troupe. What's the word on the other 10 troupes?

Awesome and congratulations. This article is wonderfully quotable.

Remember that people, when you get reviewed. Immediately look for that pull out quote that you can use in your press releases and publicity materials.

My problem with Get Up is that there are too few opportunities to see them.

Sly move making yourselves mysterious, but come on. Adoring fans want to see.

Congrats on the article.
