Stand Up: Part One

That's me - standing up!

I used to make comedy in various forms - stand up, improv, and a one person show. It's been months since I stepped on stage, and it saddens and confuses me that I've let so many moons come and go since my last performance. My stand up story is complicated, so I'll explain it in three posts, or parts - why I started, why I stopped and what comes next.

Part One: Why I Started...

I got into stand up because, like lots of actors, I couldn't get a decent audition. With no agent or manager I needed a way to be seen. So I took a class, booked a show and was on my way. My first show looked exactly like this:

So that was the beginning. I made something I'm proud of, and I'd like to make some more. Tune in next time to get the juicy deets on why I stopped.
