Valar Morghulis.


Dying is easy. Comedy is hard.
On my very first date with the wonderful and gorgeous Karli, it was established that I enjoy being surprised, and since then she's managed to come up with an interesting selection of enjoyable geek-oriented evenings out.*

The most recent outing was to Throne and Games, a Game of Thrones improv show at the Improv Centre on Granville Island. Hosted by an edgy spot-on Petyr Littlefinger as performed by Graeme Duffy, the show was an entertaining series of riffs off the GOT lineup.**   The show is on until August 1st, and if you're a fan of improv comedy and Game of Thrones, I strongly recommend it.

However, one word of warning:  there's a point in the evening when Littlefinger asks the audience to vote for their favourite character.  No spoilers, but what do you think happens to the audience favourite in a show based around George R.R. Martin's approach to storytelling?

* I'm told that this is a daunting challenge, but so far everything has been spot-on - full points to Miss KT.

** With a couple of rough spots, but such is the nature of improv.

    Did it cost you or is it free?

  2. Those who wish to sit on the Iron Throne of the Targaryens must pay a heavy price...

    Actually, no, it was free.
