KNOX: No room in the inn
Two weeks after Tina Fey talked about the importance of the arts in education, I held improv comedy callbacks in my living room. I want to make a “no room in the inn” joke here, but as funny as we are as a group, it was not a funny situation. The students we called back after auditions should not have had to spend the first minutes of their callback moving my living room furniture into the hallway. The students who I have watched dedicate countless hours to this CIO should not have had to flatten themselves against my walls in order to provide a performance space.
