THERE WAS A PROPOSAL AT THE END OF THE WHAT I DID FOR LOVE SHOW TONIGHT!

whatididforlovecomedy:

There was a for real, honest to goodness, marriage proposal at the end of the What I Did For Love Set tonight. Now that’s some good improv. 

whatididforlovecomedy:

In celebration of the WHAT I DID FOR LOVE show tonight at 7:30pm, here is a video of two otters holding hands. They are in love. It has been scientifically proven this is the cutest thing that can exist (if the moment at 1:20 doesn’t bring tears of cuteness to your eyes, you are an ice monster).

TONIGHT and every Friday at 7:30pm at UCBeast, WHAT I DID FOR LOVE is an improv comedy show about love. We interview an audience member about a great romantic story they have, and that serves to inspire hilarious improv comedy.

This is amazing. Some guy re-made Radiohead’s OK Computer and Kid A albums into 8-bit music.

If you love Radiohead and/or video game music, it’s definitely worth a listen. “National Anthem,” in particular, sounds like the most bad-ass boss fight music ever. And “In Limbo” sounds straight out of Castlevania.

You can download each album in the links below:

OK Computer

Kid A

After falling head over heels for Jonathan Brandis in “Ladybugs,” ABRA TABAK had a dream where she and Jonathan rode a roller coaster together. They held hands, but that was it. Abra woke up so convinced that the dream was real and that she was in fact dating Jonathan Brandis that she spent hours looking through Teen Bop magazines in a complete state of panic to find his address or his agent’s so she could call or mail a letter. It took way too long that morning for it to sink in that the dream was not real. Way too long. 

Abra is also a cast member of WHAT I DID FOR LOVE, a new weekly improv comedy show Fridays at 7:30pm at UCBeast. We interview an audience member about their love life. The interview inspires hilarious improv comedy.
