Ileana’s Report

I went to the IO West last night to see Angela, Ed, Kate and Oscar perform at The Armando Show.

For anyone who doesn’t know about the show, it consist of what they call the “Armando” and a cast of professional improvisers. Someone from the audience gives a suggestion, the Armando tells a story based on the suggestion and then the improvisers perform in response to the Armando’s story.

The first Armando of the night was Kate Walsh (Gray’s Anatomy) and the second was Robert Ben Garant (Reno 911, Balls of Fury). Both were a lot of fun and the cast of improvisers did a great job adapting their stories.

Two of my favorite moments:

  • Oscar trying to order a McNapoleon and a 6 ft. hash brown from McDonald’s drive-through. It was great to see Oscar’s expression when they got the hash brown into his car!
  • Angela driving a plane with narcotics while her son sat in the back. Seeing Angela act as an angry mother was priceless!

After the show I had the chance to talk with Angela and Ed for a few minutes. They were both great!

My friend and I told Angela she made us nervous during the show because she kept moving from one side of the stage to the other with her lil’ baby bump. She just laughed and said she didn’t feel she moved as much as she normally does; but it was enough to make us nervous :)

Before saying goodbye we were able to get a picture with Ed and Angela and we left after that.

The Office really does have the greatest cast. The strike needs to end soon so they can get back to work!

  1. That was a great show! Angela was so hilarious with her baby bump and her accents and lisping. Kate knocked my beer over since I was not smart having it on the floor but I was honored.

  2. Thanks for the reports – I love hearing about the cast in different projects. They’re all so talented and funny even outside of The Office (though I do want them all back to work soon)!

  3. So happy that Angela was feeling good – with how far she is in her pregnancy, I was super surprised that she was going to do that! But it sounds like everyone had a good time being creative again!

  4. Great reports! The show sounded awesome, and it’s nice to hear the everyone had a great time. I still can’t get over how sweet the entire cast is! They’re always seem to make sure that they talk to their fans, take pics, etc.
    Seeing them together makes me really want our show back!

  5. I was there as well and got a chance to chat with Angela and Kate (and Kate’s boyfriend, Chris). They were all so sweet. And the show was a lot of fun! Lots of great accents/voices from the Office cast, as Kay mentioned. And it really was nice to be able to see them having fun together.

  6. I was fortunate enough to be in attendance at the Armando Show and Kate’s Lampshades show two days earlier. (I was very excited when I learned that both shows were taking place during pre-planned vacation time to California!) I really cannot say enough good things about the quality of the performances and the kindness of our Office friends. What an extraordinary group of people!
