You bring the suggestions, Shari brings the laughs

Making it up as we go, one “Yes, And…” at a time

What to Expect at Your First Live Improv Show

  • Nothing Is Scripted: Every scene, character, and plot twist is created 100% on the spot with zero safety net.
  • How Suggestions Work: At various times, the performers will ask the crowd for a simple prompt like a single word, an unusual location, or an object. You don’t need to try to be clever—even everyday words lead to hilarious scenes!
  • Front-Row Seats Aren’t Scary: Unlike stand-up comedy, improv performers aren’t there to roast or embarrass you. If they talk to you, it’s just to grab a quick detail (like your favorite hobby) to spark the next scene.
  • The Magic Rule of “Yes, And…”: Improv relies on accepting what a scene partner builds (“Yes”) and adding new details to move the story forward (“And…”).

How to be a great audience member: Speak up boldly when they ask for suggestions, laugh out loud, and just lean into the absurd, creative energy in the room.

Ready for a night of live, unscripted fun? Grab your tickets and come see a show!

“Improv isn’t about being funny. It’s about being present, listening, and trusting that the funny will happen on its own.”

— Amy Poehler

How the Audience Powers the Show

  • You Supply the Spark: The cast starts with zero ideas until someone in the crowd shouts out a random word, location, or scenario.
  • No Stage Time Required: Enjoy the show from your seat without being on stage or acting.
  • Zero Roast Zone: Unlike stand-up comedy, improv performers don’t pick on or roast people in the front row.
  • Your Energy Drives the Scene: Laughing out loud and shouting prompts gives the performers the exact juice they need to keep the scene moving.

The audience provides energy, and the cast creates excitement!
