3:00pm | Otto von Bismark said, “There are two things you don’t want to see get made–-sausage and legislation.” After what I experienced on Saturday night at The Farm I think I can add comedy to that list.
In preparation for Hungover Improv, set to take place the following morning at the ungodly hour of 8:05am, a gaggle of performers from Long Beach’s premier acting troupes including members of Alive Theater and The Garage Theater spent Saturday night preparing for their big show.
An intoxicating display of wanton drinking was involved. And laughter. I mean hands on your knees, head hanging down, belly-heaving laughter spewing out all over the concrete floor.
I never did make it to the big show Sunday morning. And I’m still feeling the effects of their rehearsal this Monday morning.
And what did I learn?
Comedy ain’t pretty.
