Seen improv games? Now see a whole comic play made up on the spot.

Experience three nights of fearless, full‑length improvised comic theater at Imagination Stage. Each performance is a completely new play, created on the spot from suggestions you give at the top of the show — setting, relationships, and a single idea are all the seeds our veteran ensemble turns into a full-length theatrical adventure.

Why this is different

• These aren’t short skits or games — each night is a full, dramatically driven play with a beginning, middle, and end.
• Our core company (seasoned Precipice performers) blends the energy of sketch comedy with the emotional depth of live theater.
• Expect danger, tenderness, sharp wit, and scenes that stay with you after the lights go down.

Who should come

• Anyone who loves being surprised, who enjoys smart comedy, or who wants to participate in creating a one‑of‑a‑kind night at the theater. Great for date nights, friends’ outings, and curious theatergoers.

How it works

1. Arrive ready to write down a suggestion on our whiteboard. — your idea seeds the play.
2. Sit back as four veteran improvisers build characters, stakes, and a satisfying arc from that single spark.

What do critics and audience members say about our improvised plays? Here's a sampling of reviews:

"It's not theater like you've ever seen before. It's not comfortable and controlled. It's edgy and spontaneous, original and downright dangerous." — The American University Eagle Review

"Inspired, multi-chakra, nutty! What lunatic asylum did they escape from and is there room for the rest of us? " — Kelly C.

"The cast was so talented I was floored. They made improv look so easy. It flowed as well as a scripted play, but had more energy because it was not. " — John B.
