Board Members for No Shame La Crosse for Fall 2005
David Andino, Troy Iverson, Staci MacGregor, Matt Perry, Joe Schermann and Aaron Verbrigghe.
Alright, we've officially done it, we had our first show of the season last night in Joe and Verbrigghe's basement, and for a first show, it went over very well! There was a short, solid lineup of original pieces performed in front of a packed, responsive and appreciative audience, and hey, we even had pizza and nudity, the constant in-joke among us No Shame LaX-ians. Without further ado, here was our line-up.
Once more, it was a great show with a rabid crowd, and we're all hungry for more. No Shame La Crosse is back with a vengeance!NoShit Bullshit Report: Matt Perry

No Shame fans and friends, No Shame La Crosse held another great show last Friday that was jam-packed with variety and safety pins to various degrees. Moving aside from that mental image, here's the lineup.
Special "Matt drinks Hpnotiq before every piece!" night!
As always, it was an interesting occasion. We laughed, we cried, we all learned a little bit more about ourselves, and we generally made the world safer for democracy. See you in a month, LaX No Shamers!NoShit Bullshit Report - David Andino

NoShit Bullshit Report: Aaron Verbrigghe with audience volunteersSo after tonight's performance, perhaps a month's break fuels the creative stream, as we had several great pieces. There was singing, there was dancing, there was love and ghostbusting, and that was all just on Verbrigghe's part! No Shame will return within a few weeks and we promise to be back with a vengeance again. Until then. . .

NoShame La Crosse had its final show of 2005, and was it ever a smashing success! Without further ado, here's the line-up:
NoShit Bullshit Report: Joe, Jack and Drew SchermannAnd there you have it, the most jam-packed No Shame that La Crosse has ever attempted: Sixteen stellar pieces of daredevil acting! We had funny songs, we had touching songs, we had shamelessly improvised and ad-libbed works, realism, product placement, and best of all, no gratuitous genital piercing! No Shame LaX will be back again next semester when we lose the talented musical stylings of Joe, but regain the all-out shameless performing styles of Troy Iverson. See you in January, and for God's sakes, don't be afraid to perform anything!
