Woo!!

Though I have to be honest... when i saw the title of this thread I thought your new format was going to be in the style of Dick and Jane books:

Dick & Jane premiers tonight in The Spectacle at the Hideout Theatre at 10pm!
I have my empire-waisted dress ready to wear and everything!

And guess what?
The show is FREE!

This Friday and next, The Spectacle will be free in honor of its newness!

During April and May, PGraph presents the latest in their catalog of innovative shows: Dick & Jane. Dick & Jane is set in the world of Jane Austen, costumes and all. It is a delicate place, full of giggling sisters, marriage-happy mothers, coming out dances, and fancy gentlemen. PGraph will take you on a tour of this dainty world and show you what happens when greed gets the best of Mr Darcy, Miss Benet slips her father a micky, and Sir John Middleton ends up face-down in the creek. Noir stories set in the world of Jane Austen! It will be ever-so-devious.

The show continues tonight, and you can very much be a part of it if you want.

I'm looking for someone to perform SOMETHING for 5 minutes or less in between acts tonight.

And I'm looking for someone to watch the show and then produce a work of art (short story, sketch, etc...) inspired by the performance at their own leisure later.
PGraph plays every Thursday at 8pm! https://www.hideouttheatre.com/shows/pgraph/

The last Dick & Jane show is tonight! Confidence Men is opening!

This run has been both challenging for us as improvisers and storytellers and awesomely ridiculous and fun. Thanks to everyone who came out to see the show! We're doing this one last Dick & Jane before we head to Toronto for a week for the Combustion festival hosted by PROJECTproject.
