This group has been scheduled for Hold over! Aug 29th! Such a good choice! A realy crowd pleaser! I love a good story with talented actors, authentic, colourful characters, and a story that follows the rules established at the start. Happlily that happens in this performance format. Some audience folks are really into playing Dungeons and Dragons themselves, I am not one of those people, but I really enjoy watching the developing story on stage by skilled improv actors! The night I attended improvisors Joel Dinicola and Michael Vetsch played very entertaining adversaries! DND improvisors like these make the action very much like watching a live video game! Elements I liked: the live, improvised music, the dungeon master taking notes and then reminding the audience of what recently happened, as well as engaging the audience by asking someone to approach the stage to roll the decision dice. And the youngsters in the audience didn't need to be asked twice! They were seated up front and fully engaged! The entire audience seemed to really get into the story, which is different each time they perform (because improv, and of course, the decision dice!) The URL below is a link to buy tickets, I recommend Sorry Not Sorry Improv productions!

The sketchy broads were so spot on with their topics, comedic timing, and playfulness! One skit after another was clever or just pure fun. There were short punchlines that were followed by hilarious longer stories, some with a great twist at the end. They sang, they danced, they played well with each other, and the audience ATE IT UP! There was a special treat at the show we went to because Rachel Notley joined for a minute in the "You Had it Coming" song and dance. That was a highlight for sure! Plus, these women can sing! And the other skit that got me going was the Sauna woman, her accent was entertaining and physical comedy hilarious! "Take a deep breath! (sip)" And the uvula appearance was funny! All in all, there was a lot to make note of (I wish I brought a notepad to remember all the funny details to better describe the bits for this review!). I especially liked that the skits were performed with attention to detail by employing sparse but helpful "costume" changes for the audience to catch the joke on the fly. Mind you some skits were less polished (sturdy wood(?) was a bit low-brow), but that's okay. My date said these comedians put on a professional performance, they have the calibur of the talent noted in the Baroness Von Sketch TV shows.
