The Groundlings is bringing back THE GALE, their sold-out LGBTQ-focused improv from last year, scheduling at least five evenings of gay gaiety for 2018. THE GALE, 90-minute improvisations of much hilarity by the troupe The Gale, created by Chris Eckert, feature gay and lesbian Groundlings members, as well as, special funny guests from other improv communities.

Cabaret patroness Madame Mathieu has selected Charlie Franklin (The Book of Mormon, The Bridges of Madison County), and Emily Rodgers (If/Then) as guests of honor at the March 15th edition of Bistro Awards Critics' Pick Madame Mathieu's Soiree. The Broadway duo will premiere new songs by award winning composer Ryan Scott Oliver (Jasper in Deadland, 35MM) and will be joined on the program by a distinguished group of artists from a variety of disciplines.

After a sold-out year long run, The GALE returns to the world-famous Groundlings Theatre with five shows scheduled for 2018. This 90-minute improv show celebrates the beautiful (though sometimes rough) LGBTQ journey.

Original Book of Mormon star Josh Gad shared a photo on Twitter of himself with some other original cast members from the show, including Andrew Rannells, Rory O'Malley, Jason Michael Snow and Michael James Scott. Check out the photo below!
