Bad Habits - Week 6: No Social Media

  • Annoyance Theatre 367 Bedford Avenue Brooklyn, NY, 11211 United States (map)

BAD HABITS is a month long social/improvisational experiment. 

each week, the cities most degenerate, despical, and deplorable improvisers + comedians will be challenged to give up their bad habits for the sake of comedy. 

now more than ever we need to step back and spend some time away from social media. for an entire week, one group of performers will de-activate their twitter, facebook, and instagram accounts. they will not be allowed to post anything, look at anything, or photograph anything. the other group, on the other hand, will be allowed to keep their accounts active, BUT THEY CANNOT post anything on any site - instead, they will keep a diary and write down their thoughts, jokes, and dreams in a book (whatever that is.) if they want to photograph something, they will have to carry a dispoable camera with them and shoot on that. 

for the performance, the no social media group will tell us of their experiences as well as write (ON THE SPOT) their first re-activated stauts/tweet. then, the diary group will share with us some of their diary entries.
