One of the first pics from our EPIC IMPROV show to surface on the web. That's the band "Of Cherub" in the Motel Hotel bathroom. But, of course, you know that...you were there!

Tonight's show will be more #epic than this picture. #epicimprov #88ideas
These are some of the brilliant backgrounds that Tracie Mauk has drawn for our Epic Improv rehearsals. Keep in mind that these are drawn in about 20 seconds as 4 improvisers are stomping around on stage saying things like, "Hey Sis, it's great how you spell your friend's names on your wall using stars!" or "It's a Sun Dollar day at Sun Dollar Coffee."
Tracie is outstanding, however, and just puts form to her imagination and brings a totally new layer to our unique style of improvised storytelling.
Don't miss it. Two nights only! Friday and Saturday, December 13th and 14th.
Get Tickets online for $10 or $12 cash at the door!

We used a tweet that talked about a 4year old asking where Batman banks as the basis for our #EpicImprov rehearsal last night. It was very insightful. Also have you heard of the super villain "The Theripast"? We can't wait to see you on the 13th and 14th of December. It's going to be Epic!
88improv Presents: Epic Improv - featuring Tracie Mauk and Zach Short.
With hand-drawn backgrounds, an improvised musical score and 88improv's proven comedy, Epic Improv is the only show of its kind within a thousand miles. When 88improv started in 2003, our goal was to raise the bar of comedy. We wanted to be the goal standard of improv. After ten years and hundreds of performances we have learned that that audiences are smart and want to be surprised, especially at a comedy show. Epic Improv does exactly that.
Each performance will be totally unique and, if we do our job correctly, will leave the audience amazed. Our goal is to create a complete story, like a short funny play, based on pre-show tweets using #88ideas.
Tracie Mauk, an accomplished comic book artist and phenomenal improviser in her own right, will create hand-drawn backgrounds that will be projected behind our team as we perform. We can interact with these backgrounds or simply let them bring more life and imagination to the story. At the same time, Zach Short, a brilliant guitarist and song-writer, will be providing a musical score to accentuate the story.
88improv Presents Epic Improv will be more like a movie than an improv show. We've been doing this for ten years and have never seen this type of improv show before so we are sure it is new for Omaha and we are sure it will be epic!
Tickets are available online at 88improv.com or at the door the night of the show. Please share this poster or share the Facebook event with your Midwest Friends.
2 Nights only. Friday December 13th and Saturday December 14th at the 402 Arts Collective 6051 Maple Street, Omaha, NE
Doors open at 7:30 PM, show at 8:00 PM
