Wow. Absolutely stellar improv. The actors had that uncanny ability to remember the minute details that someone else had saddled them with while in the throws of hysterical and chaotic scenes. I laughed so hard I became embarrassed by my own laugh. They pulled off a jump scare in their improv horror movie. I took my kids (9 and 11) who also loved it. I’m not a parent who worries about a couple swears and mature jokes. It was totally appropriate for them. The set up started a bit awkward, but once they got going, they were just wonderful.
This was great because of the synchronous energy among the cast members. The justification of 'out of the box' events in the show was hilariously amazing.
Whether you're new to watching improv or are a seasoned viewer, Means Streets Improv: An Hour will have you howling in your seat. The actors improvised a full story based on a movie genre, and while every show will be different, you're guaranteed a great time because of the skill of the improvisers on stage. All of them bounced off each other flawlessly with a hilarious story and great one-liners.
