Tonight we five principles from the cast of "The Spotlight" climbed into a mini van and headed out to the promised land of Lyndhurst, New Jersey - more specifically, The San Carlo, for a very special "Holiday Spotlight with Sean Taylor."
This was our very first corporate gig for Spotlight - and hopefully the first of many. We brought along a couple of cameras to document the thing and hopefully capture some decent footage with which to assemble a promotional video for future paid gigs. I mean getting opportunities to perform improv is really sweet and all - but getting paid to do improv takes things to a whole other level. We were psyched!
When we arrived we discovered our audience of Corrosion Engineers and their wives tucked away in a small room on the lower level of the catering hall. What I had failed to realize was that there would be a few members of our audience who were under the age of 5. Uh oh! Better keep it clean guys!
Despite having to compete with the sounds of stomping of feet and Top 40 music happening in the rooms above ours, we managed to pull off quite a successful show! The kids (ages three and-a-half, four and four) ended up making precious little guests for the second half of our show.
A fine time was had by all and we were told that they would happily bring us back next year!
