Prince John has decreed that the citizens of Nottingham pay weekly taxes or face the penalty of death. His decrees are enforced by the evil Sheriff of Nottingham. The citizens think that all hope is lost until they hear word of a noble hero, Robin Hood of Locksley. Robin Hood, with the help of his merry men (which are mostly girls) rob from the rich, give to the poor, and save the fair Maid Marian. This comic retelling of the story includes thumb wars, missed cues, and a slow motion fight.

During an ostentatious wedding reception at a Knoxville, Tennessee, estate, five reluctant, identically clad bridesmaids hide out in an upstairs bedroom, each with her own reason to avoid the proceedings below. They are Frances, a painfully sweet but sheltered fundamentalist; Mindy, the cheerful, wise-cracking lesbian sister of the groom; Georgeanne, whose heartbreak over her own failed marriage triggers outrageous behavior; Meredith, the bride's younger sister, whose precocious rebelliousness masks a dark secret; and Trisha, a jaded beauty whose die-hard cynicism about men is called into question when she meets Tripp, a charming bad-boy usher to whom there is more than meets the eye. As the afternoon wears on, these five very different women joyously discover a common bond in this wickedly funny, irreverent, and touching celebration of the women's spirit.
"...[a] wonderfully entertaining play..." New York Post

In Collaboration with the
Set in 1944, Harvey, a Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy by Mary Chase, is the story of a perfect gentleman, Elwood P. Dowd, and his best friend, Harvey.
Elwood insists on including his friend Harvey in all of his sister Veta's social gatherings. Trouble is, Harvey is an imaginary six-and-a-half-foot-tall rabbit. To avoid future embarassment for her family - and especially for her daughter, Myrtle Mae - Veta decides to have Elwood committed to a sanitarium. At the sanitarium, a frantic Veta explains to the staff that her years of living with Elwood's hallucination have caused her to see Harvey also, and so the doctors mistakenly commit her instead of her mild-mannered brother. The truth comes out, however; Veta is freed, and the search is on for Elwood, who eventually arrives at the sanitarium of his own volition, looking for Harvey. But it seems that Elwood and his invisible companion have had a strange influence on more than one of the doctors. Only at the end does Veta realize that maybe Harvey isn't so bad after all.

If you are interested in being a part of the troupe for our IMPROV Popup performances, we would love to have you stop in at a practice!! Have questions?? Contact Us!
The Troupe had it's inaugural event January 15, 2022. You can see a few photos of that performance here.
The performance was well received, and we have hopes to make it a monthly happening. The Iola Register published a story about the Troupe leading up to the first performance. You can read the article here.
What is Short Form in improv? It is a style of improvised theater in which short and typically unrelated scenes are played. As opposed to Long Form, Short Form improv is often more gimmickey and more based on silly games or handles, and less based on solid narrative and characters.
Learning Long Form improv allows you to weave your scenes together to create a complete show of your design. Another way of thinking about it is if improv was a necklace, the scenes would be the diamonds and the string would be Long Form that holds them all together. Instead of breaking up a show with lots of suggestions, Long Form takes just one suggestion at the start and uses that to trigger multiple scenes that connect together and can jump through time and space. It's exciting stuff!
