Campus Activities Magazine 2006 Reader's Choice Awards Nominee for: Campus Activities Magazine nominee:
watch Mission's video "Happy Mother's Day" - great for family weekends! Bio"In 2006, Mission Improvable took on Lollapalooza's Mindfield. They
carried the day with a constant stream of hyjinx. Watching them get
into it with the audience was comedic surgery; purely side-splitting...
It was our best Mindfield ever!" The agents of MISSION IMPROVable Comedy Team are just a few audience suggestions away from creating a brand new and original production that's all about whatever you tell them!
This fast-paced and exciting new form of comedy is a combination of MTV's "Wild 'N Out" and "Who's Line is it Anyway?" - but there is a bit of a twist. Just like in the old TV series "Mission Impossible," the Chicagoan actors in Mission IMPROVable pretend to be agents. The audience members are the co-agents and participate in the hilarious theater games or "missions" by yelling out suggestions. The on-the-spot randomness provided by the audience makes each mission truly unique and very often hysterical. This new improvisational comedy troupe, Mission IMPROVable, is infectious and hot. MI is a regular at festivals and colleges across the country with a show that will leave you with a smile on your face and your stomach aching from laughter.
So, you want to try being an agent, huh? You're not alone.
Often people get so involved with the show that they want to try improv
themselves. For that reason, MISSION IMPROVable Comedy Team has created IMPROV BOOTCAMP,
a series of on-site improvisational comedy workshops. We offer several
classes that cater to all comedic levels from the first time stage freshman
to the seasoned senior comic! We make sure that everyone has fun!!! Other nice things people are saying about Mission IMPROVable: Hi Scott, Thank you! for your continued involvement and support of the UAF New Student
Orientation Program. Your contribution helped welcome over 550 students and
their families to UAF and truly assisted the success of our program. With your
participation in New Student Orientation, students are Discovering Their Paths
to Success at UAF: with each other, their professors, and their community. "You could say that our Mission IMPROVable show was COMICAL, But that doesn't even begin to describe this talented group of individuals. Mission IMPROVable does not rehearse or have any script. They are a professional IMRPOV(able) group that loves hearing laughter come from their audience. They are hilarious, polite, and wonderful to work with. They can turn anything into something funny." "Not only did things go well, they set the tone for the rest of the conference. They were fantastic. I appreciated their ability to quickly involve the audience and how clean their humor was. More than one of my colleagues from other schools commented on the fact that they didn’t need to go blue to get the audience to laugh. There was discussion at the membership meeting the next day that encouraged members to book from the agencies involved. Mission IMPROVable and your agency’s name were at the forefront of that discussion." |
