Even at this stage of the pandemic, the presence of top flight improv still isn’t what it once was, no matter where you go. The fate of UCB is still TBD at this point in time and the other smaller improv schools/theaters are only starting to have their house teams to get back in the swing of things.

That’s all to say that a chance to catch tip top level improv shouldn’t be missed and such a chance is coming up at The Elysian with The 15th Annual Thanksgiving Feast (that probably would have happened at UCB Franklin if circumstances were different). It’s an improvised Thanksgiving Dinner with a more than plentiful handful of LA’s best improvisers including:

Suzi Barrett
Alex Fernie
Alex Berg
Deborah Tarica
Julie Brister
Todd Fasen
Laci Mosley
Zeke Nicholson

If you could remember who was going up on several different teams every week pre-lockdown, it was all of these folks. So, once again, don’t miss out on your chance to see them live and in person (with proof of vaccination of course) and get a bit of levity before heading into the fray of a family Thanksgiving.

The 15th Annual Thanksgiving Feast is set for Tues. Nov. 23rd at 8PM PT at The Elysian. Tickets are $15 and you really ought to go get them here.

Thanksgiving is upon us and the need for food on a day that’s pretty much dedicated to pretty much being everyone’s cheat day. Still, plenty of folks are short on or without food and, especially because of the pandemic and new lockdown restrictions, are in dire need of support, more so than ever before.

That’s why Convoy, one of LA’s best improv groups for several years & long running UCB house team, is doing their annual Thanksgiving Feast Show in support of the LA Regional Food Bank. Alex Berg, Julie Brister, Alex Fernie, Deborah Tarica, Suzi Barrett, Oscar Montoya, and Todd Fasen will all be assembling for a special virtual edition of what will be their 14th Annual Thanksgiving Show on their Twitch channel, twitch.tv/convoyimprov/, on Wed. Nov. 25th at 8PM PT/11PM ET. Forget all the holiday specials that are airing/streaming and get in on an actual Thanksgiving themed show on Thanksgiving Eve.

FYI, they’ll be taking donations for LA Regional Food Bank here, but you can go ahead and donate right now if you’d like.
