Mad Libs Live! at Foulds Theatre Alliance for the Arts

Mad Libs Live is energetic, original and fast-paced. It captures the essence of the classic word game, and watching it can help kids distinguish between nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs.

"Mad Libs Live!" features a dynamic cast of characters: Aubrey Indorf as Merrily, Aidan Anderson as Geyser, Leyla Jade-Curbelo as Virtuosa, Newton Arcilla as Gogo, and Vanessa Poole as The M.C. The story captures the journey of four high school students—Merrily, Geyser, Virtuosa, and Gogo—as they unite to clinch a victory in a singing competition. Set during the finals of "Teen Superstars," a televised contest determining the top singing group at Blankville Central High, the plot thickens when they discover their lyrics are incomplete just moments before the show begins. With a twist of interactive fun characteristic of Mad Libs, the audience steps in to supply the missing words, ensuring each show is uniquely entertaining and filled with laughter.

Unknown to the rest of the group, Merrily slips out onto the stage before the show and asks the audience to complete four slips of paper and hand them to an usher. Each slip asks for a part of speech and your name. When the singers panic over the missing words in their songs, Merrily works these slips into the plot, producing a hysterical, ad-libbed musical.
