I joined a new improv group a few weeks ago (“Get Paid”), and this Thursday we’ll be competing in CageMatch, the long-running improv battle at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York City.

CageMatch is my favorite show. Two teams perform, and the winner (determined by audience vote) returns to face a new challenger the following week. I’m proud to be competing as part of Get Paid — I’m a big fan of all my teammates, and I’m honored to be working with them.

We’re up against The Law Firm, a veteran group full of insanely funny and talented people. In last week’s show they went up against another great group, RAGNARÖCK. After RAGNARÖCK’s set I thought, “Wow, if Get Paid is able to do a show even close to that good, I’ll be really proud of us.”

The Law Firm won, 110 votes to 30.

If you’re free, I’d love it if you could come. Even with a partisan crowd our chances of winning are slim, but the extra friend-laughs might be juuuust enough to buffer my fragile ego when the final vote tally comes in.

Also: ANY GIVEN SUNDAY (Thursday).

Thursday, 4/14, 11pm. Reservations can be made here.
