What do you get when you combine some of the best vocalists in New York with World-class improvisers? You get a brand new type of show, where a new musical is created each night ... 'On the Spot'. The brainchild of Nathan Armstrong (Producer), Patrick Reidy (Director) and Andrew Whitbeck (Musical Director) currently plays Mondays 8pm at the Broadway Comedy Club's LMAO Improv Comedy Room (318 West 53rd Street, New York, NY 10019). These shows do sell out, so online reservations recommend (Tickets $25-40). http://www.onthespotnyc.com/

'On the Spot' features cabaret artists singing their hearts out. Having no foreknowledge of the evening's song list, Improv Players - from the cast of Eight Is Never Enough Improv - spontaneously create the book for a musical comedy adventure.

'On the Spot' has been described by critics as "a 'spot-on' fun-filled evening of improv and music" featuring singers "equal to any found in a top-notch cabaret show" (Hi! Drama).

The show features top Improv Players (also often appearing in LMAO Off-Broadway Saturdays 8pm): Chris Catalano (Trey Parker's Cannibal: The Musical, National Voiceover Campaigns and Book of Mormon's own 'Lottery Dude'), Patrick Reidy (College Humor, Funny or Die, UCB, The Pit), Andrew Del Vecchio (Solace Comics), Meg Reilly (Broadway's Next Hit Musical, Freestyle Gangsta Rapper), Andy Scannell (Jekyll and Hyde), and a rotating cast of excellent singers.
