UPDATE: It’s back up. It’s Down. It’s back up.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but it looks like our server is on vacation. We really thank you for stopping by and we’ll be sure to share pictures of our server on sandy beaches, when it returns. Whenever that is.

Bye for now.
(Oh and just in case you want a cheap web host, that is mostly available, we recommend Dreamhost… We just don’t recommend them right this second.)

When I see a Harold (long form improv), part of me just sits back and enjoys the action with a cold PBR in hand, but the other half studies each scene, trying to discover what works, and what doesn’t. I try to keep track of highlights, and write down, in a notebook, a quick review of the troupe’s performance. These notes not only help me remember a performance months later, but also allow me to put together a good overview of who’s who in the New York improv scene. The purpose of this list isn’t to create a good aor bad list of groups, but rather to serve as a teaching tool for myself.
So, how do I look at Harolds? Here’s a constantly evolving list of a few things. Read More »
