After last year's enormous success, the Improv Percolator is returning to Common Ground Theatre with another benefit performance on Thanksgiving weekend.

Three local improv companies are joining forces to do a great show for an even better cause. On Saturday, November 26th Common Ground hosts the Improv Percolator Fundraiser benefitting Durham's Threshold Clubhouse. All of the ticket sales from the event will be donated to this organization serving individuals in the community struggling with mental health issues for over 30 years.

Join Danny Canoe, Fatmouth Improv and Third Date for an evening of laughs to ring in the holiday season. Everyone is encouraged to bring in warm clothing such as hats, scarves, gloves or socks to donate to the cause. Threshold Clubhouse members and staff will be present at the event to talk about their organization and how it's helping out in our community.

"The idea for a fundraiser started last year because we wanted to help people in need at the holidays," said Dan Sipp, who co-produces the Percolator with Anoo Brod and Alan Goldstein. "We had so much fun last year 'doing good' that we decided to do it again this year."

Located in Durham, Threshold Clubhouse is an organization dedicated to helping adults with serious mental illness learn valuable skills to support their independence. Now in its 30th year, Threshold helps its members stay out of the hospital, succeed at work, advance their education, and reach their goals.
