The IMPers will present a night of improvised theatre next Friday, May 9, at 7:30 p.m. at the Katharine Cornell Theatre on Spring street in Vineyard Haven.

This two-act show will include two types of improv: first, short-form improvised games and skits — a fast-paced act with lots of audience participation as well as laughs. Second, the troupe will take the stage to perform their Chicago-style, theatrical-based long-form improvisation. Based off a single suggestion, the troupe improvises a one-act play, usually lasting about 30 to 35 minutes.

This evening the long form is an on-the-spot episode of ZOOM. The cast, using audience suggestions, creates a unique cast of ZOOMers trying to negotiate the trials and tribulations of being an adolescent in the famous PBS series “by kids for kids.”

It’s a one-night-only show that promises fun for teens and adults. Tickets are $10 at the door or $5 in advance from any cast member.
