it's Harry Potter day

When Jo Rowling made up a birthday for Harry Potter, she gave him one that would be easy to remember, her own. Happy birthday to them both!

On the night before "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" opened, I had great fun at the Einstein Simplified show. In one improv game, I played a video store clerk who was overly excited about the new film. Since today is a Harry Potter day of sorts, here is the video of that scene. The first time you watch, try skipping past the first 2 minutes and 17 seconds. During that time, the audience suggests three movies while I am outside in isolation. If you start watching when I re-enter the room, you can try to guess what the customers want to rent before I do.

I was dissapointed with the new Harry Potter Movie. They said it was 3D and only the first 15 minutes or so were 3D plus there werent any battles. I guess its like Jaws or Rocky, just gets worse each time.

I only got the 2nd Movie...

and it seemed that you had a little pirate in you as the clerk. Funstuff... one of my friends was in ComedySportz (the Northern Virginia troop) back in the mid 90s.

Improv is my favorite... fast and witty and unpredictable... Spot On!
