A fun time at Unscrewed Theater’s 14th Anniversary celebration

by

Last night I laughed a lot through 2 shows at Unscrewed Theater, 3244 E. Speedway Blvd. in celebration of their 14 years of improvisational comedy here in Tucson. Besides free cookies, the first show was free as well, showcasing 9 of their recent Improv 101 Student Showcase adults in several hilarious “games” on stage and hosted by instructor Chris Seidman.  One of the students Spencer was in a wheelchair, and provided a lot of chuckles by his witty comments and facial expressions. This is an 8 week course, so you too can learn to do improv.
