READY FOR IMPROV: Joe Agor, standing, left, with musician Ricky Trugillo, shared a table Sunday with Kathy Tsark, her husband, Tsarkie, and Chris and Krash Kealoha for Wayne Brady's improv comedy concert at the Sheraton-Waikiki. The Hawaii Ballroom was filled almost to capacity, and Brady gave the fans a solid 75 minutes of improvised songs, stories and impressions.
HAPPY PARENTS-TO-BE: Brady and his wife, Mandie, greeted friends and family members backstage after the show. The couple met when he came out here several years ago in a show "that maybe three of you saw," he said. Love and marriage followed, and they're looking forward to the birth of their daughter in February.
GREAT SHOW, WAYNE!: Henry Kapono, left, and Kim Taylor Reece congratulated Brady backstage. Brady said he didn't know Kapono was a celebrity when he drafted him for an improv sketch ("I haven't been that nervous onstage for a long time," Henry said). Reece gave Brady a signed copy of his new art book, "Hula I Ka La."
