This was our 5th year doing Wawapalooza! I can't believe we still are doing it after all these years and that we're still selling out our shows! And these people have become my best friends. Aww sweet, I know. William Lemke is the best photographer so he came to our rehearsal before the show and took some exclusive behind the scenes pics! lol And then I stole these pics from him.
So this year I dressed in drag. Yet again. I did a sketch called Becky Rosenblatt's Yet-To-Be-Titled Vlog where I play a teenage girl that has her own vlog and is delusional about her dreams and how she sees herself.
The opening sketch was about Phillies fans who have Tourettes and just yell at umpires. Hits a little too close to home.
One of my favorite sketches was Gus playing a guy named Floyd who is a total creep and runs in to a girl at the laundromat. Then he drugs her and who knows what happens later. We just liked seeing Gus be a creep, which comes so easily to him.
Shari and Tony were old people fighting over their Comcast bill.
I played a guy working at the Apple store teaching how to use a Mac to a bunch of PC users. Then Steve Jobs comes and helps me focus on what I need to do. This was before he died. So it was appropriate. Ha! Tony had to bend down and kiss my head and it was so awkward and I almost laughed every single time we did it on the show. The pics were taken during rehearsal so I was allowed to laugh.
The best sketch of the night was Mala and Bonnie as Wal Mart employees reading off complaints from yelp.com. Go watch it on youtube.
Me and Alex then played teenagers who know everything and expect everything. But she doesn't always get what she wants.
Eric needed to decide between Gus and Dan's characters of who to keep as his friend on Facebook.
Mandy played a wife who is watching an E! special on the death of Patrick Swayze while her husband, Tony, just wants to watch the Penn State game. She really cried at each show!
Then Eric and Mandy played new parents who believe if they have their baby's head above everyone else's during it's first year, it'll give him confidence later. But what happens when they drop the baby? Yeah every time they dropped the doll, everyone freaked out. It's a doll.
Gus, Dan and Shari are office workers who are sick of the same ole same ole. You know, like getting your salad tossed.
I played a guy who is having his bachelor party and just wants to chill and play board games. But Tony comes in as the wild guy and wants strippers and blow. It was hard to play someone who was getting married b/c that'll never happen.
Dan had to go to therapy b/c he's obsessed with putting a cat in his shirt all day long.
Cast photo. Minus Gus.
But he came back and I stepped on him.
