This spring, the 29 teams that competed in Washington Improv Theater's most riotous improv competition of the year, the Fighting Improv Smackdown Tournament, learned what the rest of the Quest has always known -- Michelle Swaney kicks improv ass.
Twenty-nine, three-person improv teams competed for the audience's vote in a single-elimination competition. Only one survived -- Polygamy, a team made up of the Quest's Michelle Swaney; the Quest's teacher and mentor, Ken Hays; and filmmaker and comic dreamboat, Mike Bass. Polygamy is the most heart-warming comedy show you will ever see about an illegal and slightly-perverse marital relationship.
We are looking forward to future performances of Polygamy. We will be sure to let you know about it here.
In the 2008 Washington, DC 48-Hour Film Project, the Quest film, Spy, Gina, Spy! was named by the judges as one of the best of the festival this year. The film will screen one more time at the AFI SIlver Theater.
