Come to Vienna Coffee House on Friday to see the Monkeys do some sort of Longform thing, which will hopefully be hilarious and make perfect sense to everybody.

Improv Comedy for Habitat for Humanity

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 22:31:39 -0700

Hey everybody. This is Shauvon McGill talking, the informal leader of the Crazy Monkeys improv comedy group at Purdue. So, last year we did this show with Ship of Fools, the other improv group on campus, and we raised about $500 for Habitat for Humanity and the Timmy Foundation. We figured that was pretty successful, so we're going to do it again this year. We couldn't get a hold of anybody at the Timmy Foundation, so this year is just for Habitat for Humanity.

Here's the thing, though. I think we can definitely break last year's record of $500. I'll even sweeten the deal a little. If we can make over $600 this year, I will personally do something. What, exactly? Well, that's up to you. Streak across campus? Sing the national anthem in the middle of Class of 50? Kiss President Cordova on the mouth? You name it, and as long as I am not completely repulsed by the idea and it's not going to get me arrested, I'll do it. Well, I'll do it as long as we make more than $600 for Habitat for Humanity.

Matthews hall room 210 seats (according to Purdue) 220 people. If we can get 200 there (which I think we had last year), all you have to do is bring $3 each, and we'll have $600. That's it! THREE DOLLARS EACH. That's less than a cup of mocha at Starbucks.

Anyway, please come to the show, and please open your hearts for this very important charity. It's Thanksgiving season, after all. Give a family somewhere something to be thankful for.

And if you come up with any good ideas for something for me to do, post them on the facebook event's wall, or email us at email@thecrazymonkeys.com!

Thanks, and have a wonderful week.

-Shauvon

October 2008

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 09:37:27 -0600

October 2008 is going to be a big month for the Crazy Monkeys. In fact, I'm going to go ahead and say that it will be the biggest month ever.

First show ever a roaring success!

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 12:21:58 -0600

Thanks to everybody who came out to the first show EVER, at Armstrong Hall room 1010 last Friday night.

ESR2 #2 (by John)

Here's another edition of the comic nobody can get enough of, ESR2! This strip was written and drawn by John.

ESR2 #1 (by Shauvon)

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 15:18:15 -0600

Tim Manship has graduated. Unfortunatly, he has taken his comic strip, Eat, Sleep, Rinse, Repeat with him. John and Shauvon were particularly saddened by this loss, and so they decided to pay tribute to him by continuing his comic strip. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the first strip of the brand new comic, ESR2.

Follow the link to see a larger version.

Lookit

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 18:59:03 -0600

Lookit the Tiny Monkey, good friend of the Crazy Monkeys, has been living in town for a couple months, and I decided to help him set up a blog today. You can see it by following this news item's link. I promised to plug his new blog on the News Feed, and he promised to mention us. Go check it out, and while you're at it, look him up on facebook, too! He's there under Lookit D. Tinymonkey. He sometimes has some interesting views on life, so might be worth a read every once in a while.

Super Party Gigante

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:19:47 -0600

For years The Crazy Monkeys have been good friends with the dudes at Big Dog Eat Child. For years, Big Dog Eat Child has has this big ol' superparty thing. It's like two days long or something, and has like a hundred comedy groups and bands and whatever there. Actually it's only like 19 groups, but the Crazy Monkeys are one of them. Go over to our schedule page to see more info (really just the same info). Follow this news item's link to get to Big Doggy Child's official page.

Finally, videos

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Wed, 14 May 2008 18:28:10 -0600

Well, it\'s only been five months and eleven days, and the Crazy Monkeys have gotten all the videos up from the November 3rd Charity show (the one with Ship of Fools). Now you can watch Mike, Tom and Shauvon do an exhausting game of Deaf Interp, and watch all the Monkeys in a rousing game of Last Line Freezes. Stop lallygagging! Go watch!

Free Show on Saturday

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 15:30:38 -0600

Just a heads up to everybody. There\'s a FREE IMPROV COMEDY SHOW on SATURDAY. Take a look at our schedule page for more info.

The Crazy Monkeys would like to wish everybody out there a very happy Pi Day! We wish we could celebrate with you, but we're too busy being on Spring Break (woo).

You did NOT just lose the game.

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 11:51:40 -0700

The game is over.

It was fun while it lasted. You can all go home now. Thank you for playing.

(UPDATE: No, the Crazy Monkeys aren't breaking up. We're merely referring to this.)

Restructure

A message from the Crazy Monkeys webmaster:

Hey everybody. Thanks for finding the RSS feed again. I've rearranged the site file structure, and in order to make things more organized and manageable, I had to move the RSS feed to another folder. I'm terribly sorry if this change caused anybody to lose the feed (not that I think anybody has really looked at it, anyway). If you're reading this now, it means you've managed to find it again after all (or you're on the news page, which hasn't changed at all). Good work, and thanks for staying with us. I have big plans for the site, as always, and I hope you stay tuned for all of the exciting changes that will happen over the next few months. If you haven't yet, check out the new and improved Archive page (I can't plug that enough). It's got a lot of cool stuff in it.

I hope everyone is doing great, and I hope I see you all at the show on Friday. To make up for moving the RSS feed and totally wrecking your daily routine (I'm sure), I'll put up an awesome comic I found (just follow this article's link). I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Sincerely,
Shauvon McGill

Exctiting and hilarious auditions

email@thecrazymonkeys.com — Mon, Jan 14 2008 01:05:46 -0500

Here's a great big thanks to all the hilarious folks (guys) who tried out tonight for the Monkeys. Yes, they were all dudes, which was strangely pleasing to Sarah (she apparently enjoys the current dude-heavy dynamic). Don't freak out, though, if you didn't make it to auditions. You still have a chance! You can come by Lilly Hall on Sunday at 1:00 PM and get another chance to show us what you're made of. We all hope to see you there, although we've seen so much talent already, it's not going to be easy to pick this year's new additions.

Auditions coming up.
