Connor Ratliff: Know Everything!

I am re-blogging Connor to point out that I walked on to a Challenger scene as Christa McAuliffe. I was then quickly removed from Harold Night.

Coincidence or is UCB a puppet front for the Teachers in Space Program?

I say keep getting Challenger scenes “wrong” if you know what’s good for you.

Now that Caitlin has settled it, allow me to suggest that we’re not talking about the real criminals here. If some goon initiates an improv scene where the point is that everybody on stage has specific knowledge about a pop culture subject, do two things:

1. Make super assertive choices that, while improvisationally valid, have nothing to do with Star Trek or whatever.

2. Three-quarters of the way through the scene, quit the group.
