Back at the Improv

The stormtroopers were invited back last night to the Improv in Addison for The Dorkside Comedy. As usual, they worked the crowd before the show:



I caught a good shot of my stormtrooper talking with Steve Awesome before the show:



Then he attacked Steve Awesome during the show when Steve made fun of the stormtroopers getting their butts kicked by Ewoks in Episode VI:



The stormtroopers weren't the only ones to show up in costume:



Here's my little confession: I'm actually more a Star Trek fan than Star Wars. Shh. Don't tell the stormtroopers!

Finally, a group shot after the show:



Oh, and I played a new role tonight. Usually, I'm just there to watch the show and help the stormtroopers, if necessary, put their costumes on. Tonight I acted as Chief Germ Killer. I came to the show armed with hand-sanitizing gel and a small can of Lysol. Swine flu is going around the Metroplex and with the stormtroopers shaking hands with the public, I decided to be proactive. I Lysoled Steven's gloves after he took them off, and the hand sanitizer went around. Better safe than sorry.
