Improvised comedy shows are pretty unique. It’s not often that the audience plays such a crucial part in what actually happens on the stage, but that’s exactly what improv is all about. To those of us who don’t practice this art, making it up as you go along sounds chaotic, even daunting, but those in improv troupes thrive on it. Come see how they do it at Improv Night in Old Town Alexandria.

For this performance, The Retrocessionists will take over The Little Theatre of Alexandria, which is the perfect intimate setting for improv comedy. They’ll take suggestions from the audience in order to create scenes that will make everyone laugh. Snacks and drinks will be provided to keep the fun going. And all of this is totally free, with only a $5 donation suggested at the door. This is sure to be a fun way to get out and support Alexandria’s burgeoning comedy scene, so don't miss it!
