I needed to brag to everyone about the incredible improv show I just attended!  The founding group of Upright Citizens Brigade, Asssscat 3000 (don’t assssk), performs two shows every Sunday evening – one at 7:00 and a second (free show) at 9:30.  We opted for the latter and headed to the show, hoping that in arriving at 9:30 we would still get a seat… AND we did…. ON the stage.  [Sidenote: When reading that last sentence, the words in all caps should be in a sing-songy voice at a higher pitch than the words that follow.]  So, once in our stage-side seats, we were graced with top of the line improvised comedy, featuring Amy Poehler, Horatio Sanz, Seth Myers, Jack McBrayer, Paul Sheer, and others from UCB, SNL, and The Colbert Report.  Not only was the comedy fantastic, we had a great audience!  I mean… really great.  Chevy Chase sat in the second row sipping red wine, and we remarked at his graciousness when he rose from his seat to greet a few fans.  A couple seconds later, we realized that the group he approached was actually Macaulay and Kieran Culkin with Mila Kunis.  What a night for star-gazing – and great laughter!
