Zoo Improv
February 4, 2010

Welcome to February! We’re slinging some laughs your way as you trudge on through the last half of winter. Get the scoop!

In this Announcement:

  • Benefit performance for the Prompting Theater: Take 2! (TONIGHT!!! Thursday, Feb 4)
  • Improv @ Indi Go Artist Co op (Next Thursday, Feb 11)
  • Third Wednesday at the Iron Post (The Wednesday after that, Feb 17)

 

Benefit for the Prompting Theatre, Take 2!

We’re back at the Cowboy Monkey for 1st Thursday benefit shows. Most of the proceeds from these performances will go to benefit a local charity.

Our January fundraiser for the Prompting Theater got snowed out. We’re doing a take two for the Prompting Theater because they are in serious need of your support! So, come laugh your way into the weekend.

All proceeds from admission will go to benefit The Prompting Theater as they raise money to travel to Chicago for their performance in the Rhino Theatre Festival on Saturday, February 6th!!   The Prompting Theater is a local CU theater company comprised of adult actors with developmental disabilities.  They demonstrate through their art that a disability doesn't imply an inability. The Prompting Theatre has been working, playing, and performing in Champaign-Urbana for 15 years, and they are VERY excited to take the show on the road to Chicago.

Thursday, February 4 @ The Cowboy Monkey, 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.  Admission $4

 

Thursday Improv at Indi Go Artist Co-op

Don’t let this intimate gallery setting fool you; we’re having crazy amounts of fun at Indi Go Artist Coop! The audience decides what forms or games we use by tossing a die! We never know what we’re gonna do but it’s never the same show twice! The odds are in your favor, there’s 100% chance you’re gonna laugh.

Thursday, February 11 @ Indi Go, doors open at 7:45 pm, show starts at 8:00 pm. Admission $2
Indi Go is located at 9 E. University Ave., between Neil and Walnut, just south of the city building.

 

Third Wednesday at the Iron Post

We’re up close and high energy! Our third Wednesday performance at the Iron Post offers nearly two hours of mixed short games and long form improv comedy! That’s a lot of Zoo for your buck! Come early to get a seat.

Wednesday, February 17 @ The Iron Post, 8:00 p.m. Admission $4

 

Do you need some comedy at your upcoming event?

We will bring our one-of-a-kind performances to your event. For birthday and retirement parties, we make your honoree the star of the show!

Our group will provide a customized improv comedy show that will impress your guests and give them an experience unlike any other.
