Ah, pot holders!Chris & Jeff started Saturday night's show at the customer service desk. Jeff was frustrated with his new, gadgety pot holder. Chris offered to replace the device, and...recognized Jeff from somewhere. A camp counselor from years before...
Eight year-old Chris was heckled at the summer camp talent show for crocheting a pot holder on stage. A wise, young counselor nicknamed "Sticky" (Jeff) tried to explain to him that his act needed improvement. Sticky, however, was having a really bad day. A friend of his from college had called earlier. He had received some distressing news from the doctor...
Jeff's doctor gave a baffling diagnosis to Chris: he was extremely fatigued (or not) and needed to take a vacation (or not). The tightness in his neck, racing heart, and general confusion were sure signs of exhaustion. Chris decided to use a free ticket and visit the Lowcountry Maritime Museum...
A pirate guide (Chris) gave a family tour group their money's worth with a swashbuckling tale of high seas adventure. Interacting with a good-natured dad from his audience, the pirate guide also fielded questions from children. One wanted to know how someone got to be a pirate in the old days...
Job interview. First mate looking for new pirate apprentices. Jeff's applicant looked a little skittish at first, but soon found his sea legs with a tale of sibling rivalry. But Chris' first mate eventually gave him the heave-ho: just not mean enough for serious pillaging.
Five scenes down, we returned in ascending order to each. Back to the Lowcountry Maritime Museum, then to the doctor's office, backstage at the camp talent show, and finally...back to the original pot holder exchange.
Following the performance, Improv!Able Cause jumped on stage for another great set of short-form improvisation.
