This past August Shannon O'Neill debuted RaaaatScraps. The improv world has a new contender of a show.
, the flagship show at the Upright Citizens Brigade, , in New York City. It featured a rotating cast and guest monologuists including Aubrey Plaza, Gloria Steinem, Mark Hamill, Bowen Yang and Amy Schumer. When Covid-19 caused UCB’s East Coast theater to close, she and producer Patrick Cotnoir came up with a new version of the show.
“When UCB closed down UCB New York, I started thinking about what I would want to do and could do once things started opening up. I talked with Patrick who was booking monologuists forwhile I was running it in its final years in New York City,” says O’Neill. “I wanted to keep the SundayRaaaatScraps ” pays homage to Asssscat, the show that inspired it. “The four “A’s” are a tribute to Asssscat. It is a thank you for what it did for me and others while performing at UCB—and for me, personally, as a student, a performer and host,” she shares. “Also, I love rats. They are smart and are survivors. They do what they can to keep living. And we are doing what we can to keep performing each week.” Ratliff, Achilles Stamatelaky and Shannon O'Neillimprovisers are the crème de la crème.
I'd like to add that people are sleeping on Alex Dickson. Someone needs to sign her ASAP. She is one of the most talented performers and I can't believe I get to improvise with her and that she will return my texts sometimes. Performing improv nurtures me in many ways. A big one is that I get to see my friends every week and be goofy with them. We can chat backstage and check in with each other. We laugh and also just listen to the real shit happening in each others lives.
I'm also super stoked about the streaming option they have. To be able to stream the show at such a high quality means people from all over the world can see ashow. There are people out there who love improv but don't have a theater in their town. And now we can be an option. Plus my mom can and has watched every show so far.
