Shocking new footage reveals seedy underbelly of Geva Comedy Improv!
Recently obtained hidden camera footage from an unknown source details the insidious and ruthless inner workings of Geva Comedy Improv. For the sake of humanity and in the interest of bringing this villainy to light, we have posted the video below.
WARNING: What you are about to view is very disturbing and should not be seen by anyone under the age of 17 or over the age of 35 (our target demographic), or by anyone with any kind of health condition, people who are easily frightened or upset or anyone with dry skin or complications resulting from dry skin or a dry skin-like condition.
Dude, what's up? What were you doing? We tried to get you to come party with us, but I guess you were too passed out. Anyways man, hope you had a good night and found your way home. I wonder where you were coming from? I wonder what your name is? I wonder if we will ever meet again? Hit us up sometime, we'll totally party.
Now, we all know you should have been at Geva Comedy Improv last night. Maybe you had a valid excuse - racing in the Criterium, in the emergency room after having been run over by the Criterium - something like that. Regardless of why you may have been absent, you missed a spectacular event that has never before been seen at Geva Comedy Improv: a bum-rushing by the cast of Urinetown! Check the GCI main page soon for more photos. And don't miss the next shows on July 20 and 21!
Many of you are undoubtable saddened by the news that GCI castmember CHARLEY BELLER is moving to baltimore at the end of July. You may even have noticed that this coming weekend of shows is his last performance on Geva Theatre Center's NextStage.
Well make your hearts gladdened, because you can see him perform music with his remarkably talented wife and father-in-law this Wednesday at Kilbourn Hall! And it's Free!
Contranella is MEGAN BELLER on fiddle JOHN WOBUS on piano CHARLEY BELLER on banjo, mandolin, and percussion.
For your enjoyment, the first half of our improvised Western Movie, "The Ugly Stuff" is revisited here in graphic novel form. Click on the image below and have fun. The conclusion of "The Ugly Stuff" will be coming soon in a video! Hope you have as much fun looking at the images as I did putting them together.
GCI’s legendary leader, Tim Goodwin, waves to the crowd after his final show
Last month, GCI’s Administrator TIM GOODWIN performed his final show with us before packing up all his worldly possessions and setting course for Lake George, NY where he was cast in a production of Bruce Jordan’s “Shear Madness”. Sources close to Tim indicate that upon completion of the run of the show, he will relocate to New York City where he will “Make a go of it” and “possibly buy a wristwatch in China Town”.
A very talented actor and one hell of an improviser, Tim has been described by his closest friends as “charming, witty and an all around ok guy to hang out with sometimes, but not too often because it gets old pretty fast”. Tim’s presence has graced Geva Theatre Center and the Nextstage since the origins of Geva Comedy Improv and he will most assuredly be missed by those who knew him the least and missed slightly less by those who knew him the most. A great friend and Administrator of all things Improv, GCI conspired behind his back to put together this surprise farewell video which we showed at the end of his last performance:
Fare thee well Tim Goodwin and know that Wher’er the wind gusts North by East, so too lies the iron kettle and woolen blankets of yore; it is there you shall find us, and forever welcome you will be. Bon Voyage, sweet prince, and may you dream a dream of butterscotch and pennywhistles till the very end of days.
