Susie Essman said during an interview that it’s her job as a live performer to make every show unique and unrepeatable: that the audience should realize that no show will every take place exactly like the show they just saw, making it their own special show. I love that insight and apply it to all my shows.
And as much as I work hard to make sure my audience gets a unique show, once in a while, an audience member will do something that makes the show unique for me! Tonight, at the People’s Improv Theater (where I was graciously asked to perform by Stone and Stone, the twin duo you may have seen on Last Comic Standing), an audience member gave me a high-five as I walked towards the back of the theater after my set (something he only did for me and no other comics before or after). It’s a really little detail, but it made my night. So, if you’re planning on coming to a comedy show (you can check my schedule if you want to see where I’ll be performing next!), keep in mind that you can make a comic’s night as much as they will make your’s!
