Tour #15 Lancaster, PA

Franklin & Marshall College!  Oh and Amish Country.  And Hershey Park.  This place wasn't sure what it was all about. But we had a good time. 
There are so many things to do!  Where will we start??  Ross and I had a workshop to teach first.  It was for an improv group at F&M called, appropriately, Rumspringa.  They were really fun, and they were also slated to play with us in the set following the show.  So, on four hours of sleep, I plowed through the workshop, the show, the set and some hangout time with Red and Rumspringa. 
Like the classy ladies we are, Jess and I went to the campus brewery for drinks in our hot travel clothes. 

We had a whole second day and second show in the same venue, so we got to go explore the confused region.  We chose Hershey Park, which was awesome.  I managed three roller coasters which reminded me that I'm getting a little older when I had to balance myself each time I got off one.  Funcussions!  They were pretty great. 
JJ enjoyed some cotton candy...
And then we enjoyed some Civil War reenactment.  Old, old RedCo.

Back to work, we had another successful show back at F&M.  This was the first time we had a full version of Gaga in the show on the road, and it killed.  Turns out college kids love Gaga, dancing, autotune, and members of RedCo in various stages of dress and tape.  And speaking of music, it was this guy's first tour...
Hooray for Tilliski!!  He's been great to have around and it's awesome to have a full RedCo moving into our new shows.  He's really adding a lot to our company.  As you can see.

It's great to be headed into fall with these jerks.  We're getting busier and it will be like we're actually on tour again. 

Next stop: Long Beach, CA!
