There were a lot of really great suggestions to choose from last night, but we decided to go with "lamp."Our first scene featured Chris as a technical help desk operator and Jeff as a guy with a remote control lamp that didn't work. Turns out, solving one's relational problems will fix a bad remote unit...you just have to murder your dog first.
In the second scene, Jeff played a bewildering optometrist (with a superb bedside manner) trying to solve Chris' dimming vision.
Next came a talk radio program. Jeff was the show's host, and Chris was a redneck with an amazing story: he once rubbed a lamp in Saudi Arabia and received (then wasted) three wishes from a genie.
We then shared a brief visit with Jeff's Mrs. Evelyn Rosewater. Chris played a concerned neighbor who called Mrs. Rosewater to find out what all the racket was. Apparently, she was entangled in a floor lamp...a shocking experience.
The Pointless Parade (Lava Lamp Edition) was next. Chris was a burned out parade organizer to Jeff's commentator. We then went into the audience where Chris interviewed Jeff played George Bigby, lead float-maker and 60's pop culture aficionado.
The last scene of the show revealed Jeff interviewing for a job with GE as a remote control lamp tester.
A good second preview. If you saw the show, let us know what you thought: how was the flow? what worked, what didn't? do you like the fact we only work with one suggestion?
Your comments are greatly appreciated. We look forward to seeing you at the official Opening Night performance Saturday night!
