See this show tomorrow night! Only 2 shows left!“The Subject” is the fourth installment of The Director Series, a 4-week series of performances at the Magnet Theater wherein a Director selects a cast and presents a different form.
This month Christina Gausas is directing “The Subject” — an improvised form that follows the central character of the evening (the subject), never leaving the stage while the others enter and exit as various friends, relatives, demons and fantasy figures. Scenes in the present alternate with remembrances of things past (or, on occasion, visions of the future), sometimes jogged by a resonant object or sound. The effect is of life flashing before someone’s eyes and you witnessing every recollection.

The Broken Record: Notes from Susan Messing's NY Workshop -
Susan Messing did a workshop yesterday that was a wonderful re-introduction for me to Chicago-style improv. It also made me super sad again not to have finished the Annoyance program. Susan said everyone has a theory about how to do improv and they are just that - theories. There is no one right…

Vote For RuBin for Best Comedy Duo! USA! USA! -
We started as a duo in October 2009. Little did we know that we would shake up the improv world like we have.
RuBin has been something that the two of us adore. We absolutely love performing with each other. We’ve been through a lot of good & bad - almost all of it good - and we wouldn’t trade a single thing for it.
If you’ve seen us perform in the last 2 1/2 years and you enjoyed watching us, please help us out & vote for us for “Best Comedy Duo”. Sure, we’re nominated alongside TJ & Dave (who are AMAZING!) but we never said we were gonna throw in the towel & tap out.
And thanks so much again to everyone that voted already & nominated us to get to where we are. From the bottom of our hearts, we really love you.
NOW VOTE FOR RuBIN! USA! USA!
