Todd Glass @ DC Improv this weekend



Tonight Todd Glass performs at the DC Improv (along with local favorite Jon Mumma). Todd Glass is one of my favorite comedians. I think i like him so much because he is not afraid to be whacky and go off while he is onstage. In fact, every time I have seen him he begins his set with at least 10 minutes of improv.

That is something I enjoy seeing in comics. The ability to just go onstage and riff and feel comfortable doing it. I could watch Todd onstage for hours, he is so much fun. Rory Scovel reminds me alot of Todd Glass. I was in Season Six (WIT) with Rory a while back and performing with him was always a blast. Now, when I see Rory do his set I can see that relaxed natural that improv taught him transend through him. Todd is the same way. You feel instantly connected to him.

Check him out, along with our boy Jon Mumma, tonight through Sunday at the DC Improv. You will not be disappointed.
