" 'Cause everyone's your friend, in New York City. And everything looks beautiful, when you're young and witty."

I recently ran into Katie Schorr, from college days, on the subway, and she's in this hilarious new improv show called "The NYC" at the People's Improv Theatre (the PIT). It's an improvised teen drama, and does an hilarious job of mocking shows like 90210, the O.C., and maybe even a little Degrassi. It's even serialized, so each week picks up where the last week's stories left off. I went monday night, and it was great! The less-than-stellar part, though? Katie's older aunt and uncle, who had never seen her on stage before, chose this show to attend (complete with its section where the guys need to pay off their debts at the Shake Shop and so film and sell a "guys gone wild"-style porno film in a janitor's closet). Hilarious for me, awkward for her.

Incidentally, I feel like I know a lot of people named Katie. It's like 128 Hot Katies up in here. Oh, and Katie Knott, whom I dated post-college in the D, just told me she is getting married! That seems to be happening a lot...
