That's the sound of the alarm, folks, and you know what that means, hunker down in your cozy bunker and listen to
CAPTAIN FRAZZLE's Radio Hour!
Captain frazzle's is brought to you by vitamins! Get them where you can!
Last week we left our dear captain frazzle hanging from the edge of a ledge. His hands were slippery from the grease of the greasemonkey's jumpsuit and his shoes were weighed down with the gold coins he'd rescued from the pirates. How would he survive! It seems impossible, is this the end of Captain Frazzle? Let's find out.
"hmmm. my fingers are strong enough to hold me, but every time I try to get enough of a grip to pull myself up, I slip because of that grease monkey's greasy jumpsuit that i had to touch in order to save penelope from his copter chopping. His copter chopping? That's it! I oughta let go, and spin like that grease monkey was doing. Why, he wasn't trying to hurt penelo
WHAT? How is that 5 minutes already???
You cray cray @improv 🤣🤣🤣
what makes you say- SPIDERS SPIDERS INSIDE YOUR -. oh, no that's just your face.
I was going to comment, but then I got to watching the show. Oh my God, @improv, you're so talented!! Not that I didn't know that from your stories already, but you're an amazing improviser <3 And I have seen a fair few ;) Seriously, watching this makes me wish you lived here, you know? A, 'cause you'd rock the improv scene here and B, 'cause I'd love to come see you :D Seriously, love this show!!
How long have you been doing improv theatre?
Ah, and I loved the story also, I wish there was more of it! And you got me to take my vitamins, which I guess means it's really good writing? :D
That's the goal of all good writing.

Aw! Where in the country do you live?
I was introduced to improv when I was a kid, but I only got ... "Serious" about it less than 5 years ago.

Bucharest, the capital :D We have quite a large improv scene (I did some improv theatre for about two years and I recently stopped) and we have some really good actors, but also a lot of posers (IMO).
Wow, 5 years is a lot :O Congratulations! <3
I had no idea! What are the names of some of the improv theatres? Is it all in Romanian, or are there English performances? We'll have to come when we're next in Romania!

Yes, you will! Now I'm holding you to that :P Hmm, there's Recul which is the closest thing we've got to an actual improv theater. Other than that, it's just improv troupes that play shows...Backstage Boys, iELE (all-boys respectively all-girl groups), very good. We do have "mixed" troupes, of course, but I think these are the best.
There are some shows in English, yes, although I have yet to make it to one :D
Knowing some of the people in them though, I assume they're quite good! :)
Sounds like you're very connected to the improv scene! My friend lives in Suceava, so not SO close to Bucharest, but we can surely make a day trip of it.
Could be fun ;) Bucharest sure has some nice things to see! :D
I'm not that connected, but I've been doing it for about two years and I've been to various classes and met most of the people...some awesome, some phony :D
Sounds connected to me! Are you on a team that has a fun name?
I hate these shows with improbable cliff-hangers - of course he's going to survive since he's the star of the show. I'm talking about TV series, as I don't listen to the radio anymore. A supporting character, maybe, but the protagonist - I find it a bit insulting to expect the viewer/listener to fall for it... of course, he is going to make it. The only question is how - whether they come up with a credible plot or it's quite over the top.
Oh, and for the new prompt:
