Who couldn't use more laughter in their life? A great place to guarantee that is HUGE Improv Theater in Uptown, with shows every night except Tuesday. 'Tis the holiday* season, which brings my (and apparently may people's) favorite improv show - the utterly delightful
Family Dinner. Every Friday and Saturday through the end of the year, a group of talented improvisers (nightly cast TBA from
this lovely group) put on a very funny, very real (ish) production of a typical family dinner, including eating an actual dinner. It's super popular and almost always sells out, so make your reservations in advance. And while you're there, why not stay for another show or two, like I did? Friday nights include KINGS and The Bearded Company (keep reading for more on them), while Saturdays are The Mess (
whom I've seen a couple of times before) and
A Christmas Carol: Unscripted (I might need to go back to see this one). The full schedule (and reservations)
can be found on HUGE's website.
