The DnD Improv Show XVI: The Chosen One

The DnD Improv Show—Gas Station Arts Centre

The wild mashup of tropey fantasy trapping with probably every single person in Winnipeg who have even thought about doing improv at the fringe continues into its 16th iteration. As always, the story continues and builds from performance to performance, encouraging a dedicated audience to return over and over to fill the gas station theatre.

The performance I caught showed the magic and challenge of the format and focus on guests, with performers from An Improvised John Hughes Movie and Wuthering Frights starring in a side plot that rapidly fell off the rails and necessitating strong intervention by the DM to bring back into the meta plot, while also being absolutely hilarious.

If you know you know, and if you want to know, book quick before they sell out.
