BATS Improv Announces Holiday Theme Shows For Month Of December Image

BATS Improv Presents Holiday Snapshot Friday nights in December.

A picture is worth a thousand words. BATS talented cast of improvisers takes their inspiration from photographs provided by the audience. Each scene will start with a new photograph, and the scenes are most likely unrelated. The evocative, non-literal nature of photographs allows the actors to discover their way into characters and situations through the feeling that the images inspire, creating a night of improvised theatre that is as hilarious as it is heartwarming.

BATS Improv Presents Songs for a Sixpence Saturday nights in December. 

In the spirit of “Oliver!” and “A Christmas Carol”, BATS Improv presents a brand new, improvised on-the-spot Holiday Musical set in the world of Charles Dickens. With bigger-than-life characters and songs created right before the audience’s eyes, this show will warm hearts, and will have everyone singing “Please, I want some more”!

Ticket prices are $17 in advance, $20 at the door. Group rates available online. To purchase visit www.improv.org or call 415- 474-6776.

BATS Improv is a professional theatre company and an artistic community that cultivates and innovates the craft of improvised theatre through engaging, playful, creative performance and training.

Founded in 1986, BATS Improv is the most highly acclaimed and longest-running improvised theatre company and school in San Francisco and in all of Northern California.
