Featured Audience Members, Featured Guests, Show Recap, Upcoming Events No Comments »

041410fambHey there, and welcome to the blog for the B.Y.O.I. blog, brought to you by the letter ‘B’ for Belly Dancing. Tonight we had a very special intermission act. Ms. Jamie Lee Fury’s Belly Dancing. Our Cast tonight included Ben, Beth, Adam, Jimmy, Jon, and Daniel.

Tonight started with a bang coming from Daniel. His great R.E.S.P.E.C.T. speech reached out to all those present in the room, and then some. Great job Daniel.

Jon and Ben taught us all about ‘Punking to Help, Not to Hurt’. Meaning giving traits or gifts that help add to a scene, rather than just randomizing, and leaving your scene partners stranded. Cranberry’s was the topic of choice. When someone says something, the other partner should listen and help add to the scene. And thats what we call Yes and That’s how it’s Done.

Ben warmed us up by splitting the audience into 3 groups. Group 1 was The Incredible Hulk. Group 2 was Spider-Man. And group 3 was Superman. After many times aiming back and forth, group 1 was victorious.

041410famOur F.A.M. tonight was Tana. She is a singer, and she met one of her best friends working at the front desk of her job. She is also a nurse in training because she really likes to help people. ‘Hold on’ are her favorite words to say strictly due to how she says it. She also takes  a poll to try and find out why guys ‘like to screw virgins’.

Revolver - Adam and Jimmy - learning about virgins, Ben and Adam - ahahaha , Beth and Ben - sings and talks, Beth and Jimmy - Amsterdam.

Sport Commentator - Daniel and Beth Commentated about the sport of Brushing Your Teeth. Jimmy and an audience member helped to mime this sport out for all to see. Shooting each other with tooth-paste, water hoses, and stealing the other competitors fake teeth was just some of the great competition happening in this game tonight.

2nd round - Adam and an audience member commentated this great sports event, riding the bus. Jon and Jimmy are professional riding busers, with expert skillz.

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses - poor Beth, she had a hangover, got stuck in traffic, and her pet alligator got loose and now she is late for work at the agency for choosing high schools. Great job goes to Jimmy and the audience member that helped mime why she was late to her boss Daniel.

2nd round - Ben was late for work because the walk of shame, kid is sick, and lost his pants. Jon and Beth helped him out mime-ing out those actions so Ben could tell his boss, Adam.

Irish Drinking Song - Jimmy, Daniel, Adam, and Ben rocked this song out all about ‘The Front Desk”, “Having a Best Friend”

***INTERMISSION***

What Are You Doing? - Tickling speedos, teaching sympathy, beating mother. LOL!

Short Cutz - Slrobin Hood, aka Slum Robin Hood. He steals from the middle class and gives to the upper class just for kicks and giggles. ‘I passed 6th grade.’ ‘That means you are in the middle!’ ‘No it doesn’t, it means that I have done all that i was suppose to pass so that I could get to where I am now.’

Famous Last Words - Of; Rudolph, ‘i just realized how bad it is to be horny in the Red Light District.’ Dick Cheney, ‘Boom, Alright, you got me!’ Keyboard, ‘Ctrl+Alt+F*ck You!’ Kate Gosselin, ‘I was wondering if i could go on that show, The Bachelor?

Remake - Beth and an audience member make a great scene all about forgetting to buy some munchies. Jimmy and another audience member remade the exact same scene only using mime and subtitles. Jon and yet another audience member onces again re-created the same scene, only this time they had to do it as a biography.

With time to spare, and time to kill. the cast decides that to do another Irish drinking Song about college. Ben, Jimmy, Jon and Adam rocked this out and had the entire audience crying of laugher.

Great show tonight, and a very helpful audience tonight. Thanks once again to Ms. Jamie Lee Fury for a great intermission show. Don’t forget about Improv Boston’s Improv Marathon = 26.2 hours of improv, come see all the different groups, including our very own B.Y.O.I. Sun Apr 18th @ 8:30am.  Thanks to the group that came out from Rhode Island College!

BYOI - 12/16/09 - Michelle our Bell

Featured Audience Members, Featured Guests, Show Recap No Comments »

121609famWednesday, Dec. 16th 2009 started with the good old R.E.S.P.E.C.T. from Daniel, moving swiftly through his letters. Our F.A.M. of the night, Michelle, was full of information that generated loads of laughs from the audience.  Beth warmed us up with a B.Y.O.I. version of the classic YMCA, “Everyone loves to play with…” “B Y O I!!!”.

After a quick transition into What are you Doing?, we all cracked up from the portrays of; making cough syrup from chocolate, decorating my house with pictures of my house, and I’m not giving two sh*ts! Gotta love that safe circle.

Surprisingly fast paced, the first round of the Alphabet game went almost flawlessly, Jimmy and Beth proved it could be completed from start to finish without a hitch. I want to express a person “You Kick Arse!” to Adam for his “Por favor, … Mayonnaise?”

Bad Jimmy stole the cookies from the cookie jar… with Rudolph… at a Carnival? Crazy kid! Not to be shown up from that awesome performance, Beth made tasty mud pies… with The Wiggles… in Costa Rica? I always wanted to travel, can I come next  time?

An Shaughnessy was our Featured Ahtist tonight with he guitar playing guru, Tim, and rocked the stage. and to even help with the theme of the night… Improv… they improved a song. Soft, smooth, and yet lyrically powerful is the only way to describe the performance.

Post-It was a new game for me to see, like a really fast paced “line-from-a-hat” game that produced tons of laughs. Horse - Mortician, Zoo - Spices, Lindsay Lohan’s Backyard - Black Box, Contact Lens - Strip Club, Stapler - In Bed. Those were some hilarious scenes indeed.

Meanwhile… it was a hilarious, fast paced, A.D.D. game that made no sense, and yet totally sane.

Say It Again! WOW!!! Douchebag Man?!? Interrupting Guy?!? Holy Cow man! Genius!!!!!

And Worlds Worst was hosted mostly by our newest F.A.M.’s, Michelle, white board.

Thank you Michelle, and thank you An Shaughnessy and Tim!

Featured Audience Members, Featured Guests, Show Recap No Comments »

Lots of screaming and random noise coming from the back room…must be a good warm-up for Daniel, Ken, Dan, and Ben.  This is Ben’s last show before his short break to perform some Shakespeare.

And they enter to the theme of The Empire Strikes Back

Cam steps up as our newest member of the FAM - He is 19 but thinks he is 18.  Born in Boston in a hospital maybe.  Norton high-school.  Claims to be  a nerd.  Brett, the douchebag is one of Cam’s mediocre number of high school friends.  Fast forward to now, Cam has an on-again off-again relationship with film school.  Fan of Drama.  Jim Jarmoosh {Phoenetic spelling <– probably wrong spelling}.  JJ’s “Limits of Control is highly recommended by Cam.  Indie and Alt-Rock tickles Cam’s Music fancy.  Cam is afraid of death {Dan say’s that’s boring and Ben has a request for not stupid fears}.  Cam says snakes to make Ben feel better and we all think of Indiana Jones.  Hobbies include smoking and playing piano, maybe at the same time.  Playing piano, making it up on the spot, just the way we like it.

120909fam

That was our Featured Audience Member Cam - Welcome to the FAM, Cam!

Hot Seat opens up the gaming with Ben’s wonderful explanation.

  • “Hah, I love the Free Parking”
  • “All of our toys, from GIJoes to Potato Heads have gone Berserko”

We begin our Intermission with anticipation of the performance by Marq Twain and Charlemange Gandhi.  This is their second performance at one of our shows, and if their last show proved anything it is that we are in for a treat.  If you didn’t have a chance to make it to tonight’s show, don’t worry because Marq Twain will be back on Friday to perform once again.  I highly recommend you stop by because these two gentlemen  have a very good stage presence to accompany their creative song stylings.

And back to our regularly scheduled program.  We want to know a little more about Cam.  He definitely wants to get revenge on Brett and ruin his future career.  “Death By Deliciousness” is the candidate for new wing flavor.

Marina went to a very hot Salem High School, works at J.Jill selling clothes to Moms, she loves to shop at the Wrentham outlets for Uggs, has a bad case or Road Rage and loves a good game of tennis.  Isn’t she a catch! :-P

GREAT NEWS!

I can now update this blog from my phone.

TERRIBLE NEWS!

It’s really hard to type all this out on my phone! Seriously, call the wah-mbulance, cause these thumbs are aching already.

FABULOUS NEWS!

We had a really great show this past Friday.

HORRIBLE NEWS!

It was so good, nobody took notes, but…

TERIFFIC NEWS!

I love haiku! So I’ll piece on together a synopsis. But be warned…

DEVASTATING NEWS!

I only write haiku that involves guilt and positive reviews of my height. Such as:

~~~
You should see a show.
I mean, gosh, would it kill you?
The tall guy is hot.
~~~

And that’s as much synopsis as you’ll be getting. You’re welcome. I can tell you this though, free of guilt: if you missed Friday night, you missed one hell of a musical intermission. Put succinctly:

~~~
Marq Twain is the shit.
Wish you could’ve seen them, right?
The tall guy is hot.
~~~

Visit Marq Twain here. Seriously, they were fantastic.

We are off this week, but come on back next week for more improv and haiku height hilarity. See you soon!
