He knows a lot of the Impro Melbourne folks but he was coming here anyway before he knew those folks were coming.

That's Jeremy! He almost hooked me up with a place to stay in Edmonton last year, if I hadn't been taken in by Aden's uber-generous boyfriend Paul.

Jeremy!!!! Whoop-whoop!

ALSO! I was hoping you'd ask for a "SOUND OFF if you went to the KJ Intensive" ... so now I'll ask...

Sound Off (here) if you went to the August 2006 Keith Johnstone Intensive, and list one thing you remember from that (besides meeting Jeremy). I'll start...

I went!

I remember two guys trying to push a piano up a hill in downtown San Francisco. We helped them.

I was there.

I remember Johnstone stopping Roy and myself when we were demonstrating the hat game because we were paying attention to each other too well.

I was there.

I remember learning that blonde hair is not for me, Johnstone doesn't like folks from parts of England he's not from and that Japanese girls can be very friendly.

and deadly.

I was there. I remember the Secret Friend game where you were assigned a secret friend who over the five days you were supposed to surprise and delight without them knowing you were doing it.

Nadine was my secret friend. She bought me panties.

Roy just reminded me of my favorite Johnstone quote of the workshop.

While talking about Akira Kurosawa's 'Ikiru': "The first 2/3 is brilliant, but the last 1/3 goes a bit Japanese-y"
