Cold Pizza at the Bremerton Ferry in Blue Slippers? An Invitation to Improv


Have you seen Cold Pizza at the Bremerton Ferry Terminal in Blue Slippers? It's an especially difficult piece with the leading actor speaking Swahili with a speech impediment while the leading lady suffers a nervous breakdown during the first act!


Well, it might be seen at The Edge improv performance on August 11th, but there's no way to be sure unless you're there. You see, they make up the show as it happens with suggestions from the audience. On this day there might be a scene in the style of Star Trek and Shakespeare, or maybe the funniest account of unclogging a toilet that you've ever seen. What I do know for certain is that you'll laugh so hard for an hour and a half that your sides will hurt when you leave.


You may have seen improv on TV with Drew Cary in Whose Line Is It Anyway? The group on Bainbridge Island is at least as good as those guys if not better.

Jon (that would be me) and Eric invite you to join them on Saturday, August 11th for an evening of laughs and fun. The show is at the Bainbridge Performing Arts Center on Bainbridge Island but it's worth the drive. We'll meet at the theater at 7:00 for the 7:30 performance. Trust me, you don't want to be late as they'll stop the show and chat with you while you find a seat! The show has been known to sell out too. If you drop me an email, we'll know to expect you but otherwise we'll meet everybody in front of the theater between 7:00 - 7:15. Tickets are $10 and may be ordered in advance.

I hope you'll join us! Send me an email if you have any questions.
