With Keith Rains and Thompson Powers

Improv Salon Improvised Shakespeare — Chaos Bloom Theater Learn how to improvise Shakespeare Taught By Keith Rains 4 Weeks Sundays 1-3pm ($80) February 1st/8th/15th/22nd How to work with the narrative Shakespeare form. We’ll work with trusting the flow of the set and not looking toward any frequency ending.

Our Makeshift Shakespeare cast performed tonight
At Chaos Bloom’s Thursday Power Hour.
The packed crowd didn’t want a murd’rous night
So Keith and Thompson slayed instead with power.

The audience suggested Saturday -
A simple joy that they look forward to -
We then spun off into a “Weekend” play
With language only Makeshift players use.

If one designed the calendar from scratch
Which days would stay and which would be replaced?
If every day had a “Satur” attached
When would we Sun or Wed or get sh*t-faced?

Occasionally Mondays - Tuesdays Leap -
“The Weekend” showed us all the days to keep.
