Michelle & I had the extreme pleasure of meeting, working, & performing with the folks at Off the Cuff Comedy Improvisation while touring with A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams this past August/September. Wendy & TJ Penrod are kind, generous, amazingly wonderful human beings (they're also VERY FUNNY!!!). In addition to running Off the Cuff they both work with troubled youth AND they support & donate to the local women's shelter through Off the Cuff...in short, they are doing great things in the small community of Cedar City, UT. So if you have 10 minutes please take the time to check out their Kickstarter & donate to the cause! (Having performed on the stage we can vouch for the fact that it does, indeed, need a little love...). Thank you & have joy!!!

A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams Disturbing and violent, sexy and intelligent, Streetcar is an American classic and a theatrical masterpiece. Each of the play’s gloriously tragic heroes are haunted by deep pains of the past and each driven by the heat of brutal desire.
