ShawnMikael(s) in CoHi: Goodbye, Taylor Durant!

Two words: Taylor Durant. She's funny, kind, generous, intelligent, talented, charming, easily the DC improv scene's biggest cheerleader, someone everyone wants to work with, or wishes they could work with. She's pretty easy on the eyes, too.

And she's leaving. Her family is growing, and because of that she wants them to be near her extended family in Florida. So she's taking one last lap on her farewell tour of the DC improv scene, and our show in Columbia Heights is her official "last stop."

Come join her, and us, as we say goodbye to her and Clark and of course Pepper. There'll be laughter, and crying. And laughter-crying. We've planned a special show for her. Our lineup, to wit:

Boy Band (aka Shawn, Mikael and Taylor):
Taylor Durant
Mikael Johnson
Shawn Westfall

The Taylor Durant Players (featuring Taylor Durant!)
Already confirmed for this lineup:
Tara Maher
Xavier Padin
Greer Smith

And, of course, Taylor Durant

ShawnMikael(s) is:
Shawn Westfall
Mikael Johnson
(guest monologist): Taylor Durant

Our Host: One of the funniest and most talented storytellers on the DC storytelling scene, Cara Foran.

But: you can't see any of it unless you buy a ticket. And you know how that works: we only can sell a total of 5 (FIVE!) at the door. So get yours early and often...

Remember: Studio 1469 is BYOB!: Keep in mind that the space doesn't sell alcohol. However, you are welcome to bring your own alcoholic beverages to the show (provided, of course, you are of legal drinking age and aren't a gargantuan douche).

The Space: Studio 1469 (http://studio1469.com/), located in the rear of 1469 Harvard Street, is not your normal performance space: one part artist's hideaway, one part "white-box" theater, it's a hidden gem in bustling Columbia Heights. Please note that access isn't available on Harvard Street, but by entering via the alley off 15th Street between Harvard Street and Columbia Road. Once in the alley, walk straight to the end, where you'll find the space. More information. Directions, and a map are available here:

Doors open at 8 pm. Show is at 8:30 pm.

So there it is. Unless you're babysitting Pepper Durant or James Uchno, you'd better be there.
