A great way to get the arts back into student's lives, these classes fill the void left by many NYC schools.

GET COMEDY IN YOUR LIVES EVERY DAY BY BECOMING A COMEDIAN

William Fry, M.D., of Stanford University “Humor and creativity work in similar ways. by creating relationships between two disconnected items, you engage the whole brain.” Ken Robinson – Author of “Creative Schools” said: “the whole system of public education around the world is a protracted process of university entrance. And the consequence is that many highly talented, brilliant, creative people think they’re not, because the thing they were good at school wasn’t valued, or was actually stigmatized.”

LMAO OFF BROADWAY Returning to Times Square





After a busy summer touring nationwide, LMAO OFF BROADWAY - the interactive musical Improv comedy show by EIGHT IS NEVER ENOUGH - is Back in Times Square at the Broadway Comedy Club (318 West 53rd Street, New York, NY 10019). Tickets are now on sale for 3pm and 8pm shows every Saturday ($25 at the door or via Theatermania 866-811-4111; Group Sales SGF PRODUCTIONS 212-568-6560). Discount tickets, updated schedules and more information at www.8improv.com




It has been hard to focus on Kimye and Bey-Z strife while fielding real life drama issues such as Ferguson, Mo protests and rioting, War in Gaza and Ukraine and Mexican Border. But this is the cast to handle it all. Add in some Justin Bieber underwear ads and there is no shortage of topical material to lampoon these days. No two shows are never the same as music, sketch and interactive games are created on the spot "Whose Line IS It Anyway"-style based on audience suggestions and participation.

8 Improv at Montclaire State University

IMPROV: 50 Years Behind the Brick Wall now on NETFLIX

I ORDER YOU TO GO WATCH THIS!!!

I will never forget the time I told younger comics THE ARISTOCRATS backstage at the Improv. Truth be told I had never heard about the "JOKE" but saw the documentary and all the comics said they become professionals when they told THE ARISTOCRATS backstage at the Improv.

This Documentary form EPIX and now available on NETFLIX has some of the best comics of the past few decades talking shop about the club that started it all, the first great comics, the crap they did on and off stage in the early years yada yada yada...

Sienfeld said something very interesting. "How come we don't have more mega stars more than every 13 years" (Paraphrased) Because comics today DON'T work as hard. Too many distractions. Leno talked about being homeless and sleeping outside the NY club waiting a chance to get on stage.

So what ever you do, don't tell you parents "Walt Frasier said I should go live on the streets of NYC"  but every time I hear young comics or actors say "I am paying my dues..." NOT!!!

Waiting tables, temping, retail etc is not paying your dues. If you want a real shot at greatness it takes 100% of your focus at no cost. Back then (before 1980s) comics did not get paid for their stage time at the Improv. They got up onstage and practiced their craft, hoping to get discovered. They would be fed and get some drinks.

Now I am not a fan of unpaid work, but Comedy has no school. (Comedy school for the most part is not where you learn your craft). I can teach you how to basically structure material and Improvise. However, without getting on stage, getting over fears, learning what truly works for yourself, no advice, class or book truly prepares you for a career like real stage time.

WATCH THIS MOVIE. GET ON STAGE. WRITE. DEVELOP YOUR CRAFT.

Performing is a full time job or it is a hobby!!!
