    As a NY improviser visiting for the comedy festival I can say that this theater is nicer than any improv theater in NYC.

    Check out Harold Night if you like the spontaneity of improv but want something a bit more substantial than games that last a few minutes.

    Let your fun flag fly at improv family night on Saturdays. Even the adults will have a laugh — kids say the darndest things...

    The earlier show is usually not as funny as the later ones (I think the performers tone it down a bit because the crowd is usually a bit younger.) The later shows always have more laughs!

    Probably you should go see The Kerfuffle, 2nd Wednesdays at 10pm. I'm not at all saying that because I host it. Not at all.
