Mixed Signals

This Mixer Team is made up of eight individual experienced improvisers who have never played together before! Created just for this festival, these eight improvisers will rehearse together for the first time on the Sunday before the festival, then perform for you! It’s an experiment in chemistry where ANYTHING can happen!

Performers: Diana Brown, Gabriel Chaparro, Lacey Carroll, Harmony Johnson-Wicker, Eric Lamothe, Christine Welsh-Buck, Alice Wu, and Sarah Wulf.

All That Jazz

All That Jazz creates fully improvised, Broadway-style musicals set in the swingin’ jazz era of the 1920's-1950's. Join these hep cats and kittens as they transport you back in time! It’s the cat’s meow! 

Performers:  Yael Schy, Melissa Dinwiddie, Michael Fleming, and Pamela Hawley. Musical Director: Devin Farney.

Gail and Jess Try Their Best (Chicago)

Gail Gallagher (an MD) and Jessica Landis (a musical improviser) take questions from the audience and provide advice of dubious quality in the form of original improvised songs. 

Performers: Gail Gallagher and Jessica Landis.

Worlds Collide

What happens when two worlds try to exist in the same space? Worlds Collide takes your suggestion, breaks it apart, and smashes it back together in unexpected ways. Heroes and villains sing their truths as stories intertwine. Each show becomes a high-stakes experiment in tension, comedy, and connection, ending in a finale that will only happen once in a lifetime.

Performers: Shawn Amaro, Catherine Dietrich,  Ervin Dupuis, Goose, Sean Taylor, Christine Welsh-Buck, and William Yap. Musical Director: Grant Ewing.
