Congrats Ross Crain!
Ross was just placed on a new Mainstage Sketch team at iO West!
He is now taking team name suggestions….I suggested Jizz Pillow.
Yah you’d do him.
To call into question who we are to each other in the social environment of the theatre, to undo the knots that lead to misery, to spread ourselves across the public’s table like platters at a banquet, to set ourselves in motion like a vortex that pulls the spectator into action, to fire the body’s secret engines, to pass through the prism and come out a rainbow…to move from the theatre to the street and from the street to the theatre.
