FACE Inspired by a suggestion from the audience, our four piece jazz band creates a musical score never heard before and never heard again. Although deemed a jazz band, the music can take on many genres, depending on the suggestion.This music will in turn inspire our five actors to create scenes forming a narrative. Running between 30 to 50 minutes (depending on venue preferences), no show is like another; not only from the very nature of improv, but also from the various backgrounds of our players.

The audience votes on the winner. Challenges inspire. Inspiration leads to innovation. Innovation saves the world. Inspirado just saved the world.
