Our Vistors From St. Paul, MN!

We had improvisers visit us from St. Paul, MN and they rocked it out at Improdome and New Team Lunacy. They are called Improv This! and they were all in high school. When they graduate they are all moving in together in Astoria and doing a reality show. I wish. Because they were very funny and I hope they visit again soon.








I'm standing on the left with Alan Starcynzski's head behind me; Randy Pearlstein is standing on the right.
