Because Comedy is an Inevitability

Jill Bernard (Drum Machine) and Asaf Ronen (imp.) have long been fans of each other’s character work. Now, in their first show together, they will have the chance to walk in each other’s improvised shoes. In SWITCH, Bernard and Ronen will launch into character-based scenes with permission to, at any time, jump into the other actor’s persona, forcing them to take on theirs.

Opening for them will be Sturmundrang, the latest group to come out of The Institution Theater. Jeff Britt, Rebecca Donley, Kristin Firth, Eric Heiberg, Erica Lies, Pierce Purselley, and Sarah Marie Tufts will be rolling out the most organic of montages with improv that takes up the whole stage and the whole heart.

Nice. I actually wasn't sure if it started at 8, and did not know at all that it's at The Hideout! I did know it's this Sunday.

Yes, that photo was taken in the pool of the Hilton Garden Inn by Jen Hellow.

Thanks to everyone who was part of that packed house. Jill and I had the best time ever.

So much so that I have started this petition to keep her here in Austin!
