On the Spot: Improv Improves I MUSICAl

nearby and local stores. The twelve hour event was successful, and ended with an lmprov Auction at which the troupe members auctioned themselves off to help out in the college community.

Last semester On The Spot had shows every Monday night, but this semester they have been practicing so they can become more familiar with each other and help bring a lot more laughter on campus. On The Spot has been growing in many ways. New games are being brought out and their horizons are broadening.

When the troupe finally got to the National College Comedy Festival at Skidmore college, they got to meet fellow actors and actresses from college around the east coast. There were workshops and each school got to perfonn their own little show throughout the weekend. Senior Jess Snow said, "I think those of us who benefit the most from this experience are the 'new kids on the spot."'

On The Spot shows usually take place on Monday nights in the Widener Center Lecture Hall; many people attend these evening comedy events. Katie Reing, Junior, said, "(Improv) gives you something to do on Monday night. What are you going to do? Sit at home and watch "Third Watch?" I don't think so. Go to the improv show!" Reing also said that the troupe is "fantabulous" and they are a very energetic group of people. On The Spot consists of ten Cabrini students from all different majors and grade levels. Each of these students comes from a different background and brings his or her own style of comedy to the troupe. First year student and troupe member Devon Spratling said, "You can laugh at us and we won't get mad." w ll l'h. of the roN't AWARD < Ml'Slt' ~1 8PM MARCH 15, 16. 21, 22. lS,, !nfy;
