We at Geva Comedy Improv understand that going downtown is a bit harrowing an experience for some of you fans, so we've decided to make it easier for you, by using the
ULTRA-SWEET Google Earth. Feel free to take notes.
Let's start out at the planet Earth. If you're heading out of the solar system, it's the third planet, just past Venus. Ours is the one with the lawn ornament made of green cheese.
Head for North America. If you're unsure, just listen for the sound of my friend's muffler, which he continually contends is loud enough to be heard from space. Look for the big lakes.
Move towards the last lake on the right. You can tell which one it is by looking for the bustling activity of tourism that's brought from the fast ferry.
Here's where it gets a little tricky. If you're looking at a city that's old, delapidated, and reeling from the lack of "hip," you're heading towards Buffalo. Ours is the clean, bright city that can't keep the 25-35 set interested in anything but bitching about how Rochester has nothing interesting for the 25-35 set.
Rochester was founded right after the last Ice Age by some humble, planet-loving Native Americans, whose 25-35 set was quite happy. Then came Colonel Nathaniel Rochester and his plucky comic relief of a neighbor, George "Eastman" Kodak. Rochester was very surprised to have found a place already named after him, and settled in. The Native Americans' 25-35 set immediately began to grumble.
And here we are. The white-topped building in the center is Geva Theatre Center. Please enjoy your stay, and don't forget to boo the judge. If you're still unsure how to get here, go to

More summertime fun from Team GCI -- on top, TIM gets more hiking done; in the middle, members of the Crewe of Geva have a post-go-carting snack at the Official Post-GCI Go-Cart Party House Dibella's; on the bottom, the aforementioned go-carting...is CHRIS taking the lead in the Budweiser 8?
Well, the season's over and now members of your friendly neighborhood improv team can relax and enjoy the kind of things that people enjoy during those dog days of summer! Above you can see CHRIS and the 2004 Micetro champ SHAWNDA hocking their liveables at a garage sale to benefit their upcoming move to Philly! Below you see MIRANDA and Gorilla Theatre champ PAUL helping musical improvisor -- and member of Mountain Mojo Authority -- ARTHUR get into a mohawk.
Thanks to everyone that came and saw our shows this weekend. Once again, the support we get from the Western New York area is absolutely fantastic and appreciated. Friday Night's Theatre Sports was fast and furious, with GEVA LAS VEGAS taking home the last Theatre Sports trophy of the year! Saturday? PAUL rose above the chaff and was the wheat of our Gorilla Theatre! Thanks again to everyone, and it's been a great season of laughs and improv! Stay tuned here for more deets about our summer plans, and we'll see you in the Nexstage in October!
