Apr 24 | ARTISAN U. Presents: How to Watch Improv Comedy


HOW TO WATCH IMPROV COMEDY
A Benefit for UGM Sponsored by Artisan Vancouver Church
Saturday, April 24 | Doors 6, show 6:30
Alice MacKay Room, VPL Central Branch | 350 West Georgia St
ages 8 and up (but they'll let Frank in anyhow)

Tickets $10 in advance, $15 at the door. Available online

Featuring the comic stylings of:

Mike deBoer
Frank Nickel
and their funny friends

Mike and Frank know what they’re doing most of the time. The rest of the time they make stuff up. In the dog-eat-dog world of improv comedy, they have worked with The Panic Squad, Bust A Gut and Pacific Theatre. They specialize in comedy that is both clean and funny.

PLUS the musical stylings of:

Nelson Boschman - piano
Becca Robertson - double bass
Kenton Wiens - drums

Just like the actors, whenever this exciting jazz ensemble doesn’t know what to play, they're usually able to scrape together a few notes that sound OK. They will be featured before and after the show, during intermission, as well as IN the show itself!

This is a benefit event for Union Gospel Mission. All net proceeds will go towards UGM’s mission to eradicate homelessness in Metro Vancouver. Give the gift of laughter to your friends and loved ones while serving your community through a great organization with a near 70-year history.
