Bainbridge Performing Arts Welcomes The EDGE Improv Tonight

Kick off the New Year with an evening of laughs tonight, January 4 as The Edge presents an ingeniously improvised evening of on-the-spot comedy, all from audience suggestions. For nearly two decades, the troupe's riotous antics have inspired rave reviews from audience members and earned entertaining commentary from the troupe members themselves. Troupe member John Ellis says, "First Saturdays with The Edge is like a big gulp of happy energy for the whole month!"

The troupe has earned a devoted following and performs to sell-out crowds regularly at BPA. Members include Ken Ballenger, Frank Buxton, John Ellis, Cynthia Lair, Susan MacPherson, Bhama Roget, Andrew Shields, Chris Soldevilla, and Matty Whitman. Visit The Edge online at www.theedgeimprov.com and www.bainbridgeperformingarts.org.
