Lauren Card Live

I just got back from a night out with friends…we shared lots of laughs as we watched a great friend and actor, Valerie Sheppard in an improv comedy theater. The Crazie Beez in Santa Ana are just the ticket if you’re looking for an inexpensive night out.

Improvisational theater is like no other…raucous, fast moving, unpredictable and always a little edgy. You have to be in the right mood. The actors push themselves and the audience to think fast and connect the dots…the speed at which they conjure up jokes and situations is brilliant.

Like life, improv is an opportunity to stretch and grow…to take risks and get outside your box. An off night is painful for the actors and the audience, but tonight was awesome! The energy of the cast was high, I laughed so hard the tears ran…that hasn’t happened for a long time.

So I got to thinking…what about me and my “act.” Am I stuck and unwilling to take the improvisational risk? Am I will to stretch in my business and personal interactions to give my friends and business all that I am in the moment? The answer is YES! While rehearsing has its merits, I know that my authentic self is ready to burst forth at any moment if I will only let it. How about you?

Watch out Lulu!
