Hustle into spring with The EDGE Improv tonight, March 1st as the troupe 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 Frank Buxton quips, "We can't do it without you so please help us; otherwise we'll have to present our version of American Hustle with the boys' shirts open to the navel."

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.
