in a special long form
improv to benefit Hope For Vision in North Miami Beach.

Monday, April 24th at 7pm. 
North Miami Beach

Theater of the Performing Arts at 17011 NE 19th Avenue.
(Keegan Michael Key)
Funds raised will be used to raise awareness of retinal degenerative
diseases and to help fight for prevention and a cure.

THEY improv will be joined by Keegan Michael Key on stage for a long
form performance of the Harold, the improv form that was the brain child of
improv guru Del Close and popularized by the Improv Olympic theatre in
Chicago. The piece features a variety of connected scenes, games and
organic pieces that explore a single suggestion provided by the audience. This
will be one of the few times this piece has been performed in South Florida.

"Keegan Michael Key is an excellent actor trained in the Chicago
traditions," said THEY improv director and former Del Close student
Todd Rice. "We've been developing these skills for some time and are honored
that Keegan will work with us on continuing the Chicago tradition for local
audiences."

The "Illegally Blind" event will feature a variety of top-notch
entertainment including  the Miami Heat Dancers, DJ Le Spam, The Green Room, and the Laughing Gas Improv Theatre Company.
The evening is designed to raise awareness and funds to fight blindness
and features, among other things, the South Florida premier of descriptive
audio services for theatrical productions.

"Our 'Comedy With a Cause' program continues to raise money for
charities while changing the face of comedy in South Florida," said THEY Director
Todd Rice. "Participating in Hope For Vision, Live! fits directly with what
we're working on: Using entertainment to benefit the community. This evening
will help change the way people see, figuratively and literally."

THEY improv continues to change the face of Comedy in South Florida by
joining this show. THEY improv was selected at the ImprovMiami Prizes
2005 as the Best Short Form Troupe for Broward County.

Information and tickets are available on the Hope For Vision, Live!
