“I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.” ― Audrey Hepburn

Us at the start of the night!
The performing team
On February 7, 2013, I had the honour of preforming with the Carleton Improv Association against the uOttawa Improv team (MI6) at Cracking up the Capital, Ottawa’s first comedy festival! (Located at Algonquin College) http://www.crackingupthecapital.com/index.php?artid=event0207 Where all the proceeds went towards Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre and the Youth Services Bureau.

It was a pretty amazing night. My team and I arrived at Algonquin and got brought to the back room where the green room was so that we could hang out and relax. We got to Meet Colin Mochrie there! The show went amazing. I had quite a few friends in the audience who were super supportive and laughed at all my jokes.
Arguing with Colin
I even got to do a few scenes with Colin! 

Unfortunately OttawaU won the game this time around... they got to take home the beaver that was carved by one of our own!

Colin is such a fun guy. During this after party, he stayed for about
Afterparty!
half an hour to give our team advice, answer questions and just all around be an amazing human being. I’m glad that heroes are sometimes really heroes.
We had a limo to the afterparty!
I asked Colin to do an impressed photo with me so I could show the internet later, he said okay. I didn’t realize that was the face he made until after I saw the camera. What a joker.

All in all, an amazing experience, the first time I ever performed Improv in front of such a gigantic crowd! 

I asked him to be impressed.
