Jam Sandwich Three by Two
How completely exciting. Save the date for next Thursday, at The Alexander Bar for your seat for a brand new kind of improv experiment. Three by Two is 3 long (15 minute-ish) scenes performed by pairs of improvisers. Our theme (loosely, because we don’t want to think about it too much, or pre-plan) is ‘family’. [...]
