Improv Q&A: Gavin O’Meara

Name: Gavin O’Meara

Grade: 11th 

1. How did you get into improv? Why did you decide to try out?

“Last year Mrs. DeMeester told me that I didn’t have a choice and that I had to try out for improv, so after making it on the team last year I decided that I really loved it so I tried out again.”

2. What’s your favorite improv game? Give us an example

“My favorite improv game is police interrogation. It’s a guessing game where one person is the criminal and they have to guess what they did, where they did it, and who they did it with. They guess this from hints that the police give them.”

3. Tell me a story

“So one day at improv in July, Linus started to tell people’s fortunes with this voodoo card deck thing and the fortunes that we found were that Grace and Holly would be pregnant soon.”

4. What US landmark speaks to your soul?

“And the US landmark that speaks to me the most is the Grand Canyon because I think it’s cool that just a little water can make that huge of an impact.”

5. What’s your Culver’s order?

“A bacon butter burger with cheese curds a Heath concrete mixer and a small drink, usually ice water.”

6. What’s the best FHC bathroom?

“The one by the main office. It looks like it’s cleaned the most often.”

7. Give us your best car salesman pitch for improv?

“You should come to improv because I can promise you that you will laugh, and it’s only $5 so you can’t lose anything on it.”
