On Saturday, Oct 1st, an Improv Comedy night will be held in the Arena theater at 8PM. It will feature five members of the Moravian College Theatre House, a suite of students who have a special interest in Theatre. This will be the first of many Improv Nights, designed to reach out to students and get them interested about Theatre at Moravian.
Performing in the show will be students Jazzy Thomas, Phillip Wallens, Addison Rymar, and yours truly, Harry Matten Gillen. Adam Dart will be "emceeing" the event.
Phillip Wallens has taken charge of organizing the project, creating fliers, spreading the word, and ensuring performers are all up to speed with what is going on.
The show will be formatted somewhat like the classic TV show Whose Line Is It Anyway?, but Phillip warns not to compare it too closely. "We're not that good," he says humorously.
Admission will be free, and should be a very fun time for anyone who wants to join in. This will be a recurring event, and as we move futher into the year, plans are for the audience participation to become a larger factor.
All that said, if you're not doing anything on Saturday ad want to spend an evening with some fine artistic folks, meet some new friends, and have a good laugh with and/or at the performers, make sure you're in the Arena Theater by 8PM!
It's a shame this wasn't up before the show! I would've loved to go.
ReplyDeleteDang! Someone texted me about this, but I didn't realize it was an actual show! I thought people were just goofing around. Phil Wallens is the best! I hope they do it again!
ReplyDeleteWe will be doing it again, and I'll be sure to have plenty of advance warning for the next one. Look for it some time next month!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I was unable to go but I'd love to go to the next one. Please keep us posted!
ReplyDeleteThe next one is going to be October 22nd for those interested. I'll talk about it in a post that will go up next week.
