Guess Who's Going To Be A Groundling?

The Groundlings are a comedic improvisational company and school http://www.groundlings.com
Some of their most famous alumni include
Phil Hartman
HartmanPhil466013365_150x200.jpg
and Will Ferrell
FERRELL_BP9098_13_150x200.jpg

Yesterday, I auditioned for the school and got word today I passed
So I will begin taking the actor's classes in the next two weeks
Not exactly the two steps from the big time
But it's a start

And to let you know if you get any PMs from me with odd questions just know that your answers are probably going in a sketch of some sort

    Nice job, Buster.

    How much are the classes?

    $475
    Which is a pain in the ass for someone saving for a Wedding
    But worth it
    They also have the non-actors classes which are very fun for $250
    I took those first and I think that was part of the reason I passed

    I might take one of those non-actor classes at some point.

    I'm a pretty accomplished bullshitter.

    How do the classes work, though?

    Chicago, moved up there straight out of college to take classes. It's a blast. Sharna is still running things at IO.

    Just sign up, pay your money and go
    The non-actor classes are really laid back
    They start slow and build on fundamentals
    If you want stress I took the sketch writing class and man
    I was up almost 7 nights a week trying to get mine just right

    Chicago has been labeled "America's Second City"
    Also I have been known to call objects "things" in an improv scene
    It's not a good idea

    I've been to Second City several times; my cousin Brendan Hunt was in the show regularly for a while, before moving to Amsterdam and performing on Boom Chicago (I saw that too!)

    Just remember, there is good improv, and there is "check it out I'm using a funny voice that makes the things I'm saying funny ha ha ha"

    It's so weird, man. During the holiday season all the old alumni come back and visit.

    I want to work at the T-shirt booth at Second City, apparently it's a prereq to being awesome. Steve Carrell and Stephen Colbert both worked the booth (incidentally, Stephen Colbert still holds the record for most t-shirts sold in a single night). It's weird to think that you are standing on the same stage people like Farley stood on, or that Carrell and Colbert were nobodies selling t-shirts at a comedy school.

    The draw of Second City is so strong it almost compells me to move there just for that
    But there's really nothing alse for me there
