I'm really curious to hear if they taught anything about the editing where "scenes and characters morph into new scenes and characters". That kind of editing (when a scene just changes to a new scene and everyone knows it instantly) is awesome when it happens, and I'd love to hear if they had any techniques for it.
Okay, dammit. I'll step up to the plate, but only because it's you, Kareem.
I saw Friday night's show. The ladies asked for any workd in the English language. They got "loquacious."
From there, things were pretty fast and furious. It's hard for me to remember a lot of specifics from the show because, damn they were fast. They did indeed do a lot of morphing from gamey pattern stuff into scenes. What I liked most was how quickly they got on board as a team and started scenes out of a cacophonic madness. They played characters instantly and always made eye contact with each other--which I loved watching as an improviser. I remember a scene about hats made out of animals, I remember a lot of fun status work and I remember being impressed with their acting skills--duh, eh?
All being told, I really enjoyed the show and thank Coldtowne for bringing in yet another great troupe.
Sometimes it's a form of love just to talk to somebody that you have nothing in common with and still be fascinated by their presence.
