Last week’s show
First, an acknowledgement and apology that we missed a Thursday Throwdown recap last week. Your humble website admin/Thursday Throwdown recap narrator was booked on another show and was unable to make it in time. Our special guest last week was Cash and Carry, I heard they did great job and I believe it! I’ve seen them perform probably at least a half dozen times and they always bring it! As far as The Bureau’s set goes, I’ll just let Jenny’s message from our group chat sum it up and then move on to this week’s show!
This week’s show!
This week’s show was phenomenal! Our friend in comedy Myles had a tree fall into her house so all of the proceeds for Ants in the Hall and Thursday Throwdown went towards helping her get it fixed. I didn’t catch the exact total but I believe over $400 was raised, which is awesome!
Opening the show this week was William, a two-man troupe from Kurt Brinker and Will Miller. Kurt would like you to know that in this photo he is pointing and not doing a finger gun. It is very important to make this distinction as finger-guns in improv are punishable by death.
Our Bureau set felt very good! From the suggestion of bedsheets came a variety of funny and connected scenes. Everyone seemed to come off stage feeling really good about the set. There were times that for sure went a little “blue” (a major plot point of the set was a 20k count sheet that could make you orgasm if you touched it), but we had a great crowd of people who were ready to laugh and went along with it. Honestly one of my favorite parts about performing at Planet Ant is the people who come out to watch shows are rarely, if ever, stuffy pearl-clutchers. It’s a fantastic venue to just play and be yourself at!
Also during this show we started promoting The Bureau of Merch , our Redbubble store. The DA BUREAU headphone guy shirt that Allen is wearing in the feature photo is just one of the many designs you can buy. Did forget to plug the album though. Hey, did you know that The Bureau has an album, Da Bureau by Da Bureau available on Spotify, Youtube Music, Tidal, and a bunch of other services? You can even find clips from our Album when making stories for Tiktok, Snapchat, or Insta! What a great time to be a fan of Da Bureau! Just search for “Da Bureau”!
Okay promotion over, thank you everyone who came out this week. We’re looking forward to seeing you again next week (which at the time of posting this is tomorrow!)!
Suggestion
- Bedsheets
Memorable Moments
- A 20k count bed sheet that cost $15k, it feels so good you have to be careful handling it because it could make you orgasm.
- Jared wearing the bedsheet as a cape and running around with it
- Explaining to an insurance adjuster how the bedsheet got ruined.
- Shit there was a bunch more but I’m only remembering scenes I was in
