Showstoppers!

Last night, after a couple of years since my last trip, I went to see Showstoppers! This is an improvised musical, whereby one of the cast takes suggestions from the audience as to setting, musical influences and title, and the rest produce a musical on the spot.

I'd forgotten just how awesome it is (though I remember some of them being a bit variable, as improvised stuff is wont to be), but whenever I try to describe one to someone, it always comes out sounding awful.

Last night's production was about Barbie having a human baby, which subsequently teaches the world of plastic toys how to feel. It was called Push! and it was hilarious.

I really must remember to go to this show more often.
