IMPROV at the MAJESTIC
We've assembled a troupe of the best improvisational actors from across the Pioneer Valley to bring forth Wednesday nights of unscripted comic mayhem. Each evening begins with improv scenes similar to those played on Whose Line Is It Anyway?. That's followed by a storyline developed (with help from the audience!) right on the spot, and that "story" then carries through and is further enhanced the following week. Improv Wednesday at the Majestic will be a unique evening of comedy you won't find anywhere else - and you help make it!
Tickets $5
7:00 PM • July 11, 18, 25, August 1, 8, 15
