DC Improv - Norm MacDonald

I have completed yet another enjoyable trip to the DC Improv. This time, Norm MacDonald was the special guest from such movies as Dirty Work and Billy Madison and television shows Saturday Night Live and self titled sitcom Norm.

I had the opportunity to meet Norm after the show and like the other Improv comedians I have met, he was very nice and down to earth. It is refreshing to meet people that are well known that are actually nice people. I currently do not have any plans to return to the Improv but I intend on it once future guests are named.

Again, I urge taking the trip out to your local Improv location for a good and relatively inexpensive experience.

Tom Green

Last night I went to the Improv once again. This time, it was to see Tom Green perform. I wasn't really sure what to expect but it was a good show. He mixed a lot of his off the wall, wacky humor with some real life observations and it made for a fun night. I got the opportunity to meet him after the show. Please excuse the bad quality but at least you can tell what is going on.

The next scheduled trip to the Improv is for Norm MacDonald in October.

Rob Schneider

Last month, I took my second journey to the D.C. Improv. This time the featured comedian was Rob Schneider. I had a great time once again and enjoyed getting to meet him after the show. For anyone who has never been to an Improv location, I would highly recommend it. It isn't very costly and will prove to be a night of fun. On July 31 I will be going once again, this time to see Tom Green perform. That should make for an interesting evening.

Speaking of comedy shows, I just got tickets to see Demetri Martin at the Hippodrome Theatre in Baltimore for September 10. If you are unfamiliar with him, he has a show on Comedy Central called "Important Things with Demetri Martin" which is a sketch comedy show mixed with some stand-up routines. I enjoy his humor as it is more intelligent and observational as opposed to someone like Harland Williams who has a very outlandish and wacky style.

Harland Williams

This past March I had the pleasure of seeing Harland Williams perform his stand-up comedy at the Improv in Washington, D.C. Aside from an excellent show, he was very nice to meet.
