PNC Student Improv Group Performs at Mainstreet Theatre

The Ranting Llamas comedy will be followed by a performance by comedian Tom Osborn, locally known as Comic Ozzie and his comedic friends.

The Ranting Llamas student improv group has been performing for two years. It presents a PG-13 show that presents a unique comedy experience. Comedy situations are made up on the spot and the audience is often incorporated into a scene. Sometimes a situation is suggested by the audience and the actors build off of it,  which makes improv  fun for actors and non-actors alike. A simple word, action or an idea can be the basis of a skit performed by one member of the group or the entire ensemble – concepts like throwing snowballs, riding a bus, walking a dog or staying awake in class can all be become the basis for a comedy routine.
