The PIT Presents SketchProv Festival 2008 - FINALS!
16 teams. 1 winner. Who will it be?
New York City's hottest improv and sketch teams compete against each other to see who is the best of the best. Improv teams will do improv AND sketch, sketch teams will do sketch AND improv, and all teams will try their hand at the form of sketchprov, using the Second City routine called "The Pad." The team comes out onstage, gets suggestions from the audience for locations, activities, character motivations and so forth, jots them down on a pad (hence the name!), then goes backstage while another group is performing a scene. Backstage, the team plans out the basic beats of a sketch, then returns to the stage to improvise the story for which they've already created the main beats.
In this slot, the final two teams (one sketch and one improv) will compete to decide who will be the SketchProv 2008 Champion!
Two of the following teams will perform improv, sketch and sketchprov: The Wilhelm, Etc..., Jen + Steve, The Avatards, Project: Projekt, Boy Castaways, Washington Sidepost, Fancy Dragon, Sid Viscous!, Vacation Island, Pembroke and Lu, H & M, The Impending Moustache, Audience of Two, Finger, and Secret Hospital!
The teams who perform will be the teams who won the Sketch Semifinals and the Improv Semifinals.
Festival Passes are available for just $75!
