rabbitHOLE 11 | Improvised Shakespeare

Welcome to the second HOLE of SEASON TWO.

Today's Holes:

• Improvised Shakespeare
• Waiting for Godot, Guffman, Lefty, etc.
• Unintentionally Scary Children's T.V. Shows

BIT player Amber takes us on a journey that opens on Improvised Shakespeare and culminates with Twin Peak's pain and suffering symbol - creamed corn. Who knew?

Flannery confesses her love for Beckett's Waiting for Godot, which triggers Luke to recall a Tempest performance with only three actors. This leads to a slightly morbid tale of Amber's grandmother saying goodbye from her hospice bed but then asking for a tuna fish sandwich.

Finally, Luke tries to convey that the early muppets were very "weird," triggering Thea's memories of a dark and horrifying Norwegian children's T.V. show (Pompel og Pilt) where one puppet never finds the other and meets a broom.

This episode features many celebrity "sightings," including George Lucas, David Lynch, Dale Cooper*, Ross Bryant, Cookie Monster, Kermit the Frog, and the Bard himself!

I can't give it all away here in the notes!

APOLOGIES: Creamed corn, the celebs listed above, Jim Henson and the Muppets (for at least the third time), Kyle Merritt MacLachlan (no relation), Chat Shows, Italy, Norway (sorry, Thea), The Nutcracker, puppets, and Diabetes.

As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures.
