Keep us Best of the Bay!

Aw man, winning Best Theater Company in the Bay Guardian last year was the coolest thing ever! We were totally stymied by it. The surprise went down like this: we were putting together our flyers for Un-Scripted: unscripted (I think), and Christian sent the Bay Guardian people a few emails saying, "Hey guys, did we win Best Theater Company, 'cause we have to put together our next flyers on deadline!" And I was like, Oh Christian. How silly you are.

And then the guy emailed us back saying ". . . Um, when exactly do you need to know by?"

And we were like, wwwhaaaaaAAAaaa? And then the whooping started.

As I say, not bad for a small theater company trying to make it in a big city. It really means a lot to us that we, a company that performs exclusively theater without a script, could make enough of a difference to people that they voted for us as the Best Theater Company in the city! (runner up: ACT!!!) We've been performing as a company for almost seven years now, and we do just keep getting better and better, and coming up with ever more awesome kinds of theater to improvise: film? puppets? Bollywood? Shakespeare? Yeah, we've already done that stuff. What the heck do we do next? Don't worry -- we'll think of something. After all, we're professionals.

Help us experience that giddy surprise again! Vote for us for Best of the Bay 2009, in the Guardian poll!
