Post Show

October 7, 2007

Greetings,

After the show, I feel like it would be possible to write a few lines.  The show went very well and all participating actors are to be commended for their goodness.  There was not much of a difference from the two presentations of the same show.  The biggest difference, in my opinion was the introduction of a new skit on the second show.  I am certain we have brought in a new skit the day of the show, but this one was quite interesting.  We’re I more  unconcerned with what hte general public thought of our material, we may put it up on the YouTube account.  By the way, be sure to check it out.  We’ve fixed it up to where you can search for “Comedy for the Masses” and it will come up.  That’s the beauty of having TCOM students.

I’ve always been a fan of the coming together of a large number of people coming together from a variety of different backgrounds.  Collaboration in my mind is a big part of being sure to present a variety of different ideas and concepts in shows.  The thing about that is that if you look at our past shows, they are not wildly diverse but tend to have a running theme or two in the shows put into the shows.  This time around, it was apparent to me that “Jesus” and “rape” were the two things that occurred frequently.  I feel ashamed that I’m giving in and doing the following: I would like to remind people that CFTM in no way condones the act of rape.

Back to the point, I have always been a fan of people from various practices coming together.  People have their own interests and expertises to contribute.  My own contributions range from Charlie Chaplin films to Dinosaurs.  Go team.

The show was interesting, it would be a fun activity for me to apply various forms of criticism after the show.  I think some interesting observations could be concluded.  Perhaps if I find that I have time.  Good job to members of the group in the show.  Go team, again.  After I review the show, I’ll probably have better post-production musings.
