 Has impro comedy had it's day? Definitely
not if this is the standard of fare that is served up by this
international troupe of performers based in Amsterdam. Peter
More, Gerry van den Laas, Lolu Ajayi, Grainne Delaney, Leanne
Littlestone and Nicole Mischler
have the benefit of being directed by Jordan Peel ex of
Boom Chicago! now of Mad TV back home in the USA.
The 6 ask for audience suggestions as to
the characters they will be performing for the show and then
proceed to create a very funny comedy loosely based on these and
the Blind Dating rigmarole.
Each actor adds their own brand of mayhem
to the plot and the versatility is frightening at times.
I won't attempt to tell you the plot of
the show I saw because when you go, and go you should, it is bound
to be different, but I'm sure the quality will be just as good.
As
with all impro comedy some of the situations get a little wacky,
but, hey, that's the name of the game, it certainly
added to what is an excellent way to spend almost an hour.
