Berkelely Cafe to Host Improv Night

improv On Tuesday night (6/22) the Berkeley Cafe will host an improv show featuring four teams. The show starts at 9pm, and admission is $5. Here’s a rundown on the teams:

Really Special People

"What is Really Special People? It’s thin. It’s beautiful. It goes anywhere and lasts all day. There’s no right way or wrong way. It’s crazy powerful. It’s magical. You already know how to use it. It’s 2000 laughs and counting. All the world’s improv in your hands. It’s scenework, games, more characters than you could meet in a lifetime. It’s Sean, John, Jeremy, Kate, Josh, Ann Marie, Chris, and Hobert. It’s already a revolution. And it’s only just begun."

The 708

It’s time for something amazing. Any ordinary object you suggestbecomes a larger-than-life experience that inspires the team for all the scenes that follow. The 708 are veterans of the DSI Comedy philosophy.

Biological Necessities

Biological Necessities is a raucous young group of improv minded no-goodigens, drawn together in equal parts by their shared love of making people laugh, and the collective dirtiness of their minds. Despite the eternal bond BN now shares, the group was originally cast solely to represent NC State at the southeast regional of the College Improv Tournament. However, once the group (and the rest of the world) got one little taste of the sweetness, there would be, and could be,
no going back. BN is: Chuck Givens, John Fowler, Kevin Bragg, Mike Davidoff, Zac Hobert Thompson, and Vinny Valdivia (and occasionally the Papal Cleeferson McPoperschteen) Our Show: Biological Necessities loves nothing more than taking one audience suggestion, and exploding in your face with comedy! You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and who knows, maybe you’ll even learn something??? Come and see why BN are no longer allowed in God-fearing parts of the
country!

Vaguely Familiar

This has happened to everyone at one time or another. You’re sitting around with your friends, talking about random things. All of a sudden, you get an idea. It’s either the best idea of you’ve ever heard, or the worst. Either way, it’s going to be an interesting night. Come see us. The experience will be Vaguely Familiar.
