CARY, NC – Everyone’s invited to have the last laugh at Applause! Cary Youth Theatre’s Improv Comedy Night on Saturday, March 28, 2009 at 7 p.m. in the Cary Senior Center Ballroom, 801 High House Road ; doors open at 6:30 p.m.   The free, hilarious show will feature local teens performing improvisational comedy in amusing characters, skits and games based on audience suggestions.  

 

This performance is part of a Drama Workshop Series class offered by Applause! Cary Youth Theatre to teach specific theatre skills to teens.  Jason Pierce, a professional Improv comedian from Greensboro and the instructor of the class, will serve as emcee. Class topics vary, and each class culminates in a performance designed to showcase skills learned in class.

 

“If you’re looking for an evening of fun, no-cost entertainment, then don’t miss this evening filled with laughs,” said Youth Theatre Coordinator Rachel Green. Green added that the performance gives teens the opportunity to build their drama skills through confidence-building performances.
