My stuff: Lee White
One half of iconic Winnipeg improv duo Crumbs
DAVID LIPNOWSKI / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS Lee White
If your house were on fire, heaven forbid, what's the one item contained within that you would try to take with you? (People, pets and computers not included.)
I'd want to grab the boxes of old scripts my friends and I wrote from years ago but I'd quickly realize they are too heavy and too many, so I would have to grab the wonderfully strange and orange '70s painting that was owned by the woman who drove my mother to the hospital when I was born.
What's the one clothing/fashion item you can't live without?
Big XXL black hoodie. (Carhartt)
What's your favourite knick-knack and why?
Almost everything I own is a favourite knick-knack. Right now it's my Star Wars collection, but I have a M*A*S*H* IV bottle for dispensing vodka (even though they drank gin on the show) that I have loved for years.
What's the oldest thing you own?
I've had a toy farm set from the '70s that I have a vague memory of leaning on as a child. I also have a porcelain figure my grandmother left me that I think is from the '40s or '50s. It's a fox-hunting rider on a horse.
Describe your most beloved piece of furniture.
Furniture? I'm an improvisor/comedian -- I don't really have furniture. I guess an old set of drawers from when I was a teen with old skateboarding and band stickers on it.
Is there an edible item we'll always find in your pantry or fridge?
Canada Dry ginger ale.
