Parallelogramophonograph's Comedian Bio
|
| Bio | Parallelogramophonograph loves to tell stories. They have used their on-going residency at The ColdTowne Theater to create and experiment with new show concepts. Some of those innovative forms include "After School Improv", "The 1930s", "Family Portrait", and more recently, "French Farce". Pgraph loves to study story structure, playwriting, theatre history, films, regular history, and more to bring new horizons to their improvisation.
Pgraph has performed in Out of Bounds, Out of Bounds West, the WaffleFest Improv Festival, The Big Ha! Festival in Omaha, the 2006 Austin Sun Fest, Frontera Fest, and The Improv Variety Pack Invitational in Tulsa. They also perform in and/or direct Maestro at The Hideout Theatre, teach improv classes, produce The Double Barrel Improv Show, create short films, and generally make their presence known in the growing Austin artistic community. They recently were voted "The Best Improv Group in Austin" by the AIC, a collective of all the improvisers in Austin. They also were named "Best of Fest" in Frontera Fest 2008. The members of Parallelogramophonograph take turns sleeping in 2 hour shifts.
