But, you know, PANIC.

The Dermatological Zoo — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 02:14:07 +0000

So, if you missed our show at the Towne House (which just finished and went so well and honestly we are still riding the performance high because it was such an awesome night and the rain didn’t even matter and and and the only thing missing was you), don’t panic. We repeat: Do. Not. Panic.

Know why? Because there are TWO more chances to see us this month. TWO! Catch us at our usual bag, the Midtown Scholar Bookstore this Friday for their 3rd in the Burg celebrations at 6:00. Woot. Wooooooot.

And THEN! On Wednesday, September 28th, you can see us at our home, the Gamut Classic Theatre in Strawberry Square at 7:30 for a big-time show where we’ll be joined by not one, but t-t-t-two other troupes! Yes, our good friends, The Oxymorons and Don’t Break The Streak, will be joining us for an unforgettable night of improv free-for-all.

It’s gonna be so nuts. Don’t panic.

The internet is an interactive medium.

Whoa. Okay. Are you ready for all of the improv that is about to be spat at you? Because, to be honest, we don’t think you are. This weekend (starting TONIGHT!), you can check out any and all of the following sweet gigs:

Don’t miss all of our gorgeous ladies teaming up with equally gorgeous ladies from THREE (count ‘em, THREE!) other improv troupes from Central PA and beyond for “No Artificial Sweeteners: Ladies of Improv” doing a one-night-only show tonight at Gamut Classic Theatre inside Strawberry Square in Downtown H-burg!
On Friday, catch us working our monthly magic over at the Midtown Scholar Bookstore from 6:00 to 7:00. PLUS! That night kicks off the 2011 Comedy Improv Throw Down (deets below), and you can catch four awesome troupes doing exhibition shows over at the Harrisburg Comedy Zone, including No Artificial Sweeteners and our good friends, Sara and Kim, in their duo-form, Hot & Modest.
THEN. On Saturday. T.M.I. is gonna split some faces (with comedy!) in Round 1 of the 2011 Comedy Improv Throw Down! Unbelievably talented troupes from all across the East Coast will be descending on Harrisburg to improvise, teach, entertain, and compete for your affection, approval and cash prizes. Catch us at the 8:00 slot, and–God willin’ and the creek don’t rise–you might also catch us in Round 2 on Sunday!

Look at all those links! This post is just teeming with improv info!

You’re welcome.

One Week, Two Shows!

Fresh off our success in Philly over the July 4th weekend, TMI Improv is back in Harrisburg with two shows in one week.

On Thursday, July 14th, we will be on the roof of the Towne House Suites and Apartments on Boas Street in Harrisburg. This will be our first show on the roof and to add to the excitement, we are extending our show to 90 minutes. We go on at 8:30pm and will wrap up around 10pm that night. Come out for some laughs under the stars!

On Friday, July 15th, we will be at The Midtown Scholar Bookstore for our Third in the ‘Burg gig. The Friday fun starts at 6 and we go for about an hour.

Both shows are free of charge!

Remember, we use your suggestions to make our shows go. Come on out and tell us what to do!

Also, don’t forget, you can find us on Facebook, just search for T.M.I Improv.

Cheez Whiz, Philly, thanks for having us!

Whew! We had a TIME in Philly! PHIT invited us to the Shubin Theatre on July 3 to do some long form action. We did one of our favorite games we like to call Waiting for Godot. If you want to know what that is, come see us do one at the Midtown Scholar every 3^rd Friday. How’s that for an explanation?

Then we did a super fine Harold based on an audience suggestion of Cheez Whiz.

In more exciting news, we gave birth to another improv game called Spoiler Alert! You’ll have to wait to find out what that one is, too. Come see us at 3^rd in the Burg on July 15! Midtown Scholar Bookstore, 6pm. See you there!

April 15th Recap

joezimmy — Sat, 16 Apr 2011 23:06:19 +0000

We hope you were able to catch our show on the 15th but if you weren’t there (or even if you were but you missed something because you were laughing so hard) here is a brief recap:

We warmed up with a rousing game of “Ninja” and that involved the audience as well to get them warmed up.

Next up were 2 rousing rounds of “Ding!” with Craig and Jennie shopping in a watermelon stand and then Joe and Kacey having a grandfather/grandson chat.

Following that two rounds of “Clarks Not Here” featured Jennie and Clark trying to get Craig to say “I’d walk a mile for a Camel” and then Christina and Kacey coaxing David into uttering “Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down.”

“Story Symphony” featured David as a Sitcom, Joe as a Soap Opera and Craig as a Reality Show talking about Pandas.

“Rotating Box” was played with Joe and Kacey as conjoined twins, Jennie and Christina lost in at the Jersey Shore, Kacey and Jennie in a crypt and Joe and Christina at a chiropractor.

Christina and Jennie played “I know what you’re thinking” about a house fire and then Joe and Clark spoke “Gibberish” about a hidden office romance.

David and Jennie worked out some issues with “Good Morning” and then Jennie and Craig did a “Saying/Doing” about taxes and milking a cow.

We ended the with a “World’s Worst…” involving Plumbers, Pole Dancers, Child Care Workers and Taxidermist among others.

We had a great time and enjoyed performing for everyone that came. Hope to see you back at the Scholar on May 20th!
