A New Adventure
A New Adventure is an improvised fantasy epic where everything is created live — heroes, villain, world, and cataclysm. The audience becomes the Council of Fate, shaping the story and triggering dramatic dice rolls that determine success or spectacular failure. As a dangerous power emerges and a villain’s plan unfolds, our heroes must decide: save the realm… or pay the price. No script. No safety net. Just destiny… and the roll of the dice.
Eulogy
Introducing: EULOGY. Nobody’s Mad at You’s latest and greatest improv format. Laugh, cry, and have a healthy scream with us on opening night!!
The Biggest Cast Ever
A story so epic that it takes a village to tell…but only three people showed up tonight. Created by veteran improvisers Adam Archer, Eve Krueger, and Tim Stoltenberg, this show draws on their experiences at Dad’s Garage and The Second City to create a unique way of performing sketch and improvisation. Get ready to get involved - this little cast is going to get bigger as audience members step into empty roles. Will this ‘very important’ story be told? Will there be enough audience members that we can rope into playing the parts of the people who didn’t show up? Will you have a very good time if you see this show? We hope the answer is ‘yes’ to all questions.
