That's one I find myself angsting over.

well, once he pays his rent, can we ask him then?

What exactly are improv's tenants?

For me it's onstage vs on stage.

I just realized I rarely use the term "longform" when talking about improv here in Austin. It's such an insider word to begin with that only when I talk to improvisers in other states do I find myself having to clarify "oh, it's a longform". For realz.

Interesting.

It is interesting!

I think it's because of the amount of communicating with out of state improvisors online that I did early on.

I tend to use "onstage" as an adjective ("onstage action").

Scene work vs scenework - I totally roll with scenework.

since feeling is first
by e.e. cummings

since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
—the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for each other: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis
