Went to go see the Upright Citizens Brigade show last night Asssscat. I've been to a few other shows there and enjoyed them but hadn't been to this one - i had heard from others that this one was the one to go see. So we bought our tickets Saturday morning so we could be sure we would get in and stood in line for about 20 minutes outside before being let in. There was a standby list but who wants to wait around if you aren't sure you are going to get in.
The show impressed - from the Start Matt Besser and Matt Walsh (both were players on the UCB show) walked on stage and chatted with the audience for awhile and then introduced the rest of the cast. They only asked for suggestions from the audience twice and both words kicked off a monologue by guest monologist Morgan Murphy and then followed by a 30-40 minute improv jam inspired by the monologue.
The whole show was hilarious, i was laughing the whole time. At only $8 for a ticket it's cheaper than going to see a movie and you can bring your own drinks into the theater. Highly recommended.
Bonus points for being in an awesome neighborhood (Franklin Village) with lots of good food and an awesome bookstore not that far away.
