A couple weeks back Tim Lyons put this poster together for Prime. The show has always been high-energy and fast paced but over the past couple months we've organically come to a loose form. Semi-narrative following a group of brothers/friends/co-workers/teammates on some limited arc. Sabine has been playing with us constantly for the last couple months so were at a roster of 5. Most times though either him or Morehead is out at a Second City gig so we operate at four, the optimum number.
It is both a gratifying and frustrating show. When it works it is the most free and fluid I ever feel improvising, when it doesn't it is the most constraining and difficult. It is a challenge and one I'm glad to go into each week with my friends.
Morehead, Nelson, Sabine, Nelson, Uhlir. All Prime. Sundays at 1030pm in the iO Harold Cabaret.
