Well, after a year, this finally got me to post again.

I’m obsessed with this commercial for three reasons:

1) Dan Bakkedahl as AT&T. He is a brilliant improviser from Chicago. I’m going to see him perform with Pete Grosz and Rob Janas tonight at UCB.  In Chicago, these three used to perform with Jon Lutz (30 Rock) as 4 Square.  I would watch them almost weekly as a student at i.O. Excited to see them as 3 Square tonight!

2) The guy who plays the iPhone. His name is Andy and he used to be on Greek with my friend, Kinsey.  I met him at a party last year and he was super nice.  He was also a brunette. I see this commercial and I cannot figure out why he decided it was a good idea to go blond.

3) That dress.  I covet it.

I meant to upload this picture of me and the cast of Community a while ago.  This picture is from a night at the L.A. Improv Fest a few weeks ago.  I took a class during the festival led by Danny Pudi (Abed) and stayed to see his show that night.  Alison Brie (Annie), Yvette Nicole Brown (Shirley), and Jim Rash (Dean Pelton) performed, too.  They were all extremely friendly and kind.  It’s nice to see good people get success in this town.  You might also spot Adhir Kalyan from Rules of Engagement.  He and I have many mutual friends and he also had met Danny recently, so it was a fest of friendliness.  Good times!

So many shows!

I’ve been performing two or three shows a week, lately!  Here’s a still from my latest Operocka show.  We did a rock musical from the suggestion “Car” and it was a total blast.  I think this is when we were all singing about getting to Atlanta.  We all died in the end and it was incredible.  This might just be my favorite improv group ever.*

*My other favorite groups are Daddy Warbucks and Mission Improvable — luckily the two other groups I currently perform with!  Seriously, though, I’m having much better luck in L.A. improv than I did in Chicago.

A scene from the end of the very first HannaLo Variety Hour at M.i.’s Westside Comedy Theater.  Amazing theatrical debut from my father, mother, and my friend Mike (who decided to add a New Zealand accent just to make it a bit more fun).  The night was an overwhelming success and I’ve got my next one planned for July 10th!

NOTE: This takes a while to upload. Working on another version that will be quicker.

I recorded this song with my friend, Pete Shukoff, aka Nice Peter.  He wrote the lyrics and recorded the music.
