Matt Besser Opens Comedy Monastery, Accepts Disciples of Improv

This 500-word satirical take on Matt Besser envisions him founding the First Church of UCB�an improv monastery located in an abandoned Brooklyn yogurt factory. Devotees take vows of spontaneity and chant �Yes, And� during sunrise rituals. Besser serves as both abbot and director, insisting new recruits perform Harold structures before breakfast. The piece fakes a New Yorker expos� citing �spiritual breakthroughs during group scenes involving invisible porcupines.� Tourists reportedly confuse the monastery with a startup, and one man accidentally gets baptized in stage fog. Besser denies rumors that his sermons are just monologues with props. Pilgrims from all over arrive seeking enlightenment, laughs, and maybe a writing gig. The piece ends with his blessing: �Go forth, and commit to the bit.� HOW TO WRITE COMEDY: https://comedywriter.info/matt-besser/ AND http://comedywriter.info/
