Gated Community 'Improvs' Jupiter, Florida

Gated Community, a high energy improvisational comedy troupe, performs live on Saturday May 20^th at 8pm/> at The Atlantic Theater.  Gated Community has been entertaining South Florida audiences since the fall of 2004, and they combine short form and long form improvisation, sketch comedy, video sketch, audience participation and song parody, offering a show full of wit, charm and hilarity along with a clever insight on the humors of everyday life that we can all relate to. Gated Community shows are unique in that the performers get scene ideas and suggestions from audience members, so no scene is ever pre scripted and the actors never know which direction a scene may take.  

          Gated Community performs a brand new monthly show at The Atlantic Theater, and has appeared at the 2006 Miami Improv Festival and opened for The Groundlings from Los Angeles and Upright Citizens Brigade from New York City.  It was their second straight year performing at the Miami/>/> Improv Festival, a collection of the country's best Improv comedy troupes.  Gated Community has also been invited to perform on the main stage at Artigras 2006.  Gated Community recently received a 2005 Impy award as best sketch comedy in Palm Beach/> County/>/>.Every show offers a new theme, with brand new sketch comedy, improvisations and videos. The theme for this show is "Extraneous Makeover" which will focus on the incredible amount of "changes" that happen in South Florida/>. Audiences continue to discover the humor and energy found in a live Improv show, as the mix of sketch, improvisation, music and video leaves patrons excited about the endless possibilities of live theater.  Gated Community takes comedy seriously….very seriously.   

A special guest performance of Under Construction, a teen Improv comedy troupe, will be opening up for Gated Community at 6:30pm/>.  The group consists of 9 local teenagers who write their own sketch comedy similar to Saturday Night Live and perform improvisations similar to Whose Line Is It Anyway?  They have been together for the past two years and have appeared at Artigras 2006 and Sunfest 2005.  Tickets for their show are $7 for adults and $5 for children.  A special combo ticket can be purchased for both shows.  Tickets for Gated Community are $15.00 and students are $10.00.  Tickets can be purchased by calling (561) 575-4942.  For further information please visit the website     www.gcimprov.com
