What's the most memorable moment you've had at Spitfire?

During the April 27th shows for Game of Lesser Thrones there were so many great moments!! I also really enjoyed my Level 2 Student Showcase scenes with my scene partner Steven.

How would you explain Spitfire shows to someone who's never been?

I always start by asking "have you ever seen the show Whose Line is it Anyway?" I describe the shows as improv comedy games or scenes where there is usually an element of audience participation for suggestions.

How would you describe the Spitfire community in 5 words or less?

Committed. Talented. Got. Your. Back.
