Performances

[Ashley Whitehurst]

All:

I wanted to continue the dialogue on getting some groups to play in with us during our run. I've already asked 2 groups to join and have sent the dates to them to figure out what dates they can do. They seemed pretty optimistic! As well, for those of you who are in other groups, I totally think you should see if you can add that to the mix, because I plan to do the same. We could definitely have a few groups go per night. As a reminder, here are the dates we have:

Performances - All shows are at 8, but if we wanted to get in earlier, Aaron from Studio Be says we can get in at 7:30 and stay til 9.

• August 2
• August 9
• August  16
• August 23
• August 30
• September 6
• September 13
• September 20

the leaves don't fall here,

My friend Phil DJs and I thought that might be a cool act for us to add to one of our nights. Any thoughts on which night might be appropriate for that?

His normal set is goth/punk/shoegaze

[Ashley Whitehurst]

Probably the goth/punk/shoegaze night.

[Ben Harpe]

Emo Homecoming dance!!!!!! Back to School?

Some people say Shoegaze started in Kalamazoo. Those people are called liars.

Also, from last week, here are our themes:

• Gender Swap
• Murder Mystery
• Slumber Party
• Back-to-School
• Casino Night
• Current Affairs
• Secret-Secret
• Phobia Night

So also think about what to do with all of these.  Hmmm....

I've just posted a call for other acts on CIN - props to Kaylie for writing it!

See you Thursday at 10PM in the room Ashley will get! Bring $10 for Craig and all of your improv props and costumes.

Not funny even a little bit,

Ooh gender swap might work! Or phobias! It's creepy music. Let me run those themes by him and see if one strikes his fancy.

[Ben Harpe]

Guys the CIN post has gotten 4 hits.

[Mike Kauffman]

Do the acts sound promising?

[Ashley Whitehurst]

ATTENTION NUGGETS!

I texted Craig and told him we didn't get a room at Second City, so he booked one for us. He told us to meet in front of the skybox at 10. DO NOT GO TO BEN'S! (...I just mean for tonight's rehearsal, if anyone wants to go to Ben's on their own time that's fine. I'm looking at you, Ben!) If we can, I'd like to send a text update to the whole group in case someone doesn't get this message before tonight. I'm going to message Ben, Kaylie, and Ashley, but I don't have any more phone numbers, so if you see this and love yourself and your improv brothers give them a holler and let them know what's up.

Thanks playas!
Kelsey

[Mike Kauffman]

Hey everyone,

Unfortunately, Jen will not be able to stay on as one of Maria's Corner Booth Dirt-Nuggets, and asked me to send this along:

Kelsey, Ashley, Ben, Mike, Kaylie, Melissa, Tyler 

Hey guys.

I just want to say I'm sorry I haven't been around.  I was stupid and double booked myself.  I got involved with people just as disorganized as me, and it's resulted in neglect and inconsideration to you guys.

My wonky attendance has been disrespectful and dismissive to the group.  And I think the best thing at this point would be to bow out.  It wouldn't be fair for me to come back.

I know the group is going to be great, and it is my loss I cannot be a part of it.

With Love,

Jen

Hi!

You've probably heard from Kelsey already, but Craig had to cancel tonight, so we're just gonna take this as a blessing in disguise that we don't have to be up from 10-12.

Can everyone (besides kaylie and Kelsey) meet next Wednesday with Craig? I think it'd still be important to meet Thursday with bess, too, as we will have not rehearsed in 2 weeks in a row.

So! Let me know if you can do next Wednesday and/or next Thursday!

not constipated,

Ashley 

[Kaylie Curran]

Boo! I am sad to miss two SUPREMELY AWESOME rehearsals in a row. 

[Melissa Fricke]

Wednesday and Thursday are fine for me. Sorry I missed last night (if you guys still met up). I'm still a little sick and didn't have the energy.

hey all,

craig just texted me saying that he needs to know about wed asap because he has another group asking for that time slot as well. so wednesday, may 25th, 10pm at second city, text me and let me know what is what. 312-834-8269

thanks!
kelsey

[Kelsey Kinney]

Hey gang,

I messaged Craig and told him we're gonna have to pass on Wednesday, because only four of us could make it. I have class with him today and can try to feel out his schedule for an upcoming rehearsal possibility. Unless of course, you guys would rather just forget about it and focus on snaring Bess as our lifelong improv mate... either way is cool with me. Have a great day, nuggets!

Yours in sickness,
Kelsey

Hey all,

Kelsey, here's availability for Wed:

Ben
Ashley
Melissa

OUT

Mike and Tyler, if you can both do this, we're on. If either of you can't, since there'd be so few of us, we pass.

Please give Kelsey your reply so she can follow up with Craig.

Ben Harpe,

[Ashley Whitehurst]

Hmm, maybe it's time we try to nail down bess!?

[Melissa Fricke]

Agreed!!

Lovin Bess, but please remember I have already asked Adal to come in one more time, so we should keep him in mind as well.

[Ashley Whitehurst]

duly noted! okay, so let's give adal another go and then bess another go and THEN we make our decision. 3 weeks from now, we should have a permanent coach in mind.
