SUNDAY COMEDY SERIES:
The Third Thought ImprovCelebrating the Randomness of Life
Sunday, May 19 @ 8pm
Long-form improv in Tampa Bay! The Third Thought is dedicated to creating truthful long form improv. Since forming in 2011 through a random series of incidents, The Third Thought has been celebrating the randomness of life at venues including American Stage and Coconut's Comedy Club. The Third Thought brings something new and different to Tampa Bay as one of the region's only long-form improv groups. They recently just performed at the Del Close Improv Festival in New York and will be performing at the Orlando Improv Festival in September. Many members met while taking a workshop with Ricky Wayne and decided to create their own style of improv. Funny, smart and totally awesome!
