BagelProv

The short, idealized version:
…because improv should be discussed and discussing it over a bagel brunch sounds lovely.

The more accurate, long version:
Last year a few folks (all of us students taking classes at Unexpected Productions) started putting together a group to jam outside of classes.

During one organizational email thread, this transpired:

Lynn: …Oh, and I like anything that combines eating–eg. bagels and cream cheese before a morning jam.
Tony: I’m pro-bagel as well.
Erin: I stand in staunch opposition of bagels unless they are served with cream cheese (or toasted with butter) in which case I am in favor of them…
Sean: I love lox.

Tony put finger to keyboard and created a mailing list for us named “BagelProv” and the name was born. Besides just jamming there was a desire to spend some time just talking improv. Our initial plan was to spend time playing together and then go out for bagels and talk about improv. A lack of nearby bagel shops changed that reality as we just brought bagels to the rental space and had some minor discussion as we went.

A few months later (probably in part because that desire to just talk improv wasn’t being quenched) Tony put together this blog and invited several of us to join him as contributors.

Tada: BagleProv the blog.
