ThanksDay

Christie Grace — i am thankful for the laughter, infinite yeses and ready-to-play-ness of my lovely friends.  it is such a great and wonderful thing to bring joy to one another.  how lucky that we get to do this together.  :)

 

Tom Thibodeau — @ImprovWins I iz happier ‘cuz of it

 

Kate Adair– Being a part of TNM creates the same opposite-of-lonely, there’s-flickering-hope feeling I have watching X-Men movies. So though the list of things I am thankful for about TNM is longer than I can list, I am particularly thankful to be surrounded by the sexy, uncanny talent of kind and intelligent people who not only know how to play hard, but how to play great.

 

Clifton Hall — @ImprovWins thankful for improv because of the friends I’ve made and amazing people I’ve met because of it. Also makes me feel good about me

 

Mike Spara –I’m thankful that TNM has provided a space for artists to come together and celebrate their craft and each other in equal measure.  It has given us a community of support to pursue individual endeavors, collaborate on larger goals, and welcome others into a badass, beautiful, intelligent, loving creation.  It is a platform, the best of incentives and excuses, for us to love what we do and one another.  I love you all for being a part of this.  You are eternity and the mirror.

It’s Workshop + Tour time…some more!

Shyla (TNM Houston) and Tami are officially launching their Shyla & Tami Are Your New Husband Tour TONIGHT in Houston!

We’ll be coming through New Orleans for a workshop (see description below!) then off to Atlanta’s Basement Theater & Charleston’s Improv-a-Thon at Theatre 99 this weekend.  Want to tell your friends in Atlanta or Charleston to come see us? Tell them to come and freak us out with some strange information that they shouldn’t know so that we can spend our long car rides trying to solve mysteries!

WORKSHOP in NOLA:
We all had so much fun in the last Date Workshop that we were all like “This should be it’s own show, right?”.  So, we’d like to run this workshop again not only to help folks work on their character and dynamic work, but also to start farming for a cast of The Date Show. Wanna be involved?!

Let’s Go On A Date w/ Tami Nelson Workshop -Thursday, Nov. 17th 7-9p @ The New Orleans Healing Center #250
We take the frame of Date Night and work on how to heighten character, dynamic, premise and elasticize our scenes to the max.

Workshop is $10, email nelson DOT tami AT gmail to save your spot.

We Made a Video: Vintage Live Shows #2

What’s more vintage than history? In the next installment of our “Vintage Live Performances” series, the always informative performers of TNM’s flagship show, “The Megaphone Show” fill our minds with knowledge and our hearts with patriotism. Who knew that history could be so much fun?

Congrats Grads…

Following in the tradition of many proud-chested teary-eyed ceremonies before, the very first TNM NOLA class graduation was held this past Saturday night.

But before the ceremony – these dudes did one killer ass show.  Like, no one could shut up about it.

CONGRATS! and THANK YOU! and LET’S DO SOME MORE!


Wanna see all the fun pictures are up on our flickr – lookie lookie!
Thanks to Dane Faucheux for the snaps.
