Next At Bat

The Twin Cities improvisation community is booming. Each week, local improvisors Philip Simondet and Matthew McCloud interview an improv team (or other artist) and then improvise with them. Matt digs deep into the improv philosophy and theory behind each guest during the interview portion of the show. In Philip's Corner, Philip proves that you don't have to ask good questions to get good answers. Then, the hosts join the guests for some improvisation that could go anywhere and be about anything!

    Off Book | Next at Bat

    Alexis Camille, Maggie Sotos, and Sean Dillon of Off Book (unfortunately Molly Chase couldn’t join us) talk about prod-recting(?) a show that pairs an actor performing their half of a scripted piece with an improvisor who has no idea what play they are supposed to be a part of. They also discuss fun in failure, meta communication between performers, the inherent structure of scenes, the audience’s innate desire to see the performers succeed, and the importance of bold declarations. Also, we are invaded by babies. Follow Next at Bat:facebook – NextAtBattwitter – nextatbatpodinstagram – nextatbatpodcastnextatbatpodcast@gmail.com

    History Made Up | Next At Bat: Episode 117

    Will Frazier joined us to discuss his podcast, History Made Up. On the podcast he travels the nation listening to local history stories, then uses them as inspiration for improvised scenes along with improvisers local to that area. He talks about the inherent cooperative nature of improvisors, the differences he’s seen in style between different cities, and dealing with storytellers who may or may not be performers themselves. Also, we visit a bar with a plaque for everything.

    The Laser Comedy Show | Next At Bat

    Chris Fair of The Laser Comedy Show joins us to talk about his unique, visual form. He also discusses building tension, the difference between an audience of adults versus and audience of kids, how studying sketch will improve your improv, promoting shows, and being heckled by children, as well as bands that are actually one person. Also, we see the origin of a snakewolf. Follow The Laser Comedy Show at LaserComedyShow.com Follow Next At Bat at facebook.com/NextAtBat

    We Have Faces | Next At Bat

    Grant Ertl and Justin Bettencourt (unfortunately Kenneth Pierce couldn’t join us) of 2017 Troika winners, We Have Faces, join us to talk about how three strangers who have never met can quickly develop chemistry and evolve a form to become champions. They also discuss types of improvisers, the importance of support, grounded absurd-ism, how small groups require members to jump more, and the effectiveness of gimmicks. Also, we observe the rise of acronyms. Follow Next At Bat at facebook.com/NextAtBat

    Rated G | Next At Bat

    Kevin Albertson, Phillip Schramm, Sami Haeli, Nathan Kelly Rouse, Erin Kennedy and John Hilsen of Rated G (unfortunately Becky Hauser, Sinez Lennes, Amanda Underwood, Jo Nachtigal, Aaron Cook, Gregory Parks, Denzel Belin, Justin Betancourt, Jeremy Barta, and Jeff Gyllen couldn’t join us) join Philip (Matt also couldn’t make it) to discuss producing an improvised family friendly musical that is definitely not associated with Disney. (If anything, it’s more Pixar than Dreamworks.) They also talk about musical tropes, experimenting with ideal show times, developing group mind, being conscious of the message sent by the types of stories you tell, and the interplay between improvisers and their musical accompaniment. As always, the interview ends with Keyboard Corner. Then we present the musical The Lighthouse on the Prairie.

Also, we learn a lot about linguistics. Follow Love Letters at facebook.com/Love-Letters-Improv Follow Next At Bat at facebook.com/NextAtBat
