Fools Play brings it... to CHS

I've recently revived improv at CHS as part of Capital Academy, the afterschool classes designed to make up for the hours and hours of time lost due to the roof collapse this past December. The workshop, called the Art of Improv, is merely educational right now, but with enough effort and energy, we just might be throwing a show together before the end of the year.

Today, Chris Harris and CHS's own Josh Hird of Fools Play came as guest instructors, teaching students their patented approach to the theory of improv. If you had been there, you'd have learned about offers, salsa, suspension, and "jibba jabba."

Suffice it to say: it was awesome, and I'm sorry you missed it.

Oddly enough as I walked to class that morning- I saw the Impov sign and had to smile at seeing Josh's name. Topping that, of course, was to actually see Josh on his way to your classroom. Awesome.
