Nothing Better Than A "Food Court Musical"
I'm way, way, way out of touch with most of my students pop culture deities.
Why?
Oh, I've never seen High School Musical. Nor its peppy pop culture sequel.
[insert old guy out-of-the-loop shoulder shrug here]
However, how many of my students have seen Food Court Musical? Huh?
This gem -- and many others -- are brought to you by the ever-impressive underground improv group called Improv Everywhere. They're based out of NYC since 2001 and are infamous for sending 'agents' into unsuspecting public spaces to conduct improv experiments called 'missions'.
Here is a list of every 'mission' they've ever launched.
Good stuff: some of it quirky, some of it delicate, some of out outrageous. All of it good fun in the name of unexpected good fun.

Best one I have seen...

Amazing to watch people's reaction.

I LOVE Improv Everywhere...my favorite one is when they had a cellphone symphony in the Strand Bookstore. If you've ever been to the Strand, you know how cantankerous the staff there is. Awesome. Thanks for reminding me!
