Sing a SONG.



In case my friends don't find my constant musical outbursts annoying ENOUGH,  I have decided to Make it Official.  As of this week, I started the UCB's Musical Improv class.  Sooooo, over the course of 8 weeks, I'm learning to continue long form improv, completely made up scenes,.... all in song.  (OR SOMETIMES FREESTYLE RAP).


It's weird and stressful for sure; but it's so much easier to swallow the stress of improv when there's a song!  The accompanist plays a tune based on the suggestion, and as long as you understand song structure, it's really not that terrifying.  In fact, I love it so far and I've only been to one class.


You may laugh and roll your eyes now, but someday I will meet Wayne Brady in a dark lounge somewhere....and we will ascend the stage.....each give a nod to the jazzy pianist with the cigarette....and sing a song about a random one word suggestion from the audience.
