The EDGE Improv to Bring Summer Fun to BPA, Today

Devote an evening to summer fun with The EDGE Improv July 5th at 7:30 p.m. as the troupe presents an ingeniously improvised performance 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 treat you to a night at Rosie's Crab Shack where you'll definitely get crabs."

The troupe has gathered an enthusiastic band of followers 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.
