About The Groups:
The Oxymorons improv comedy troupe specializes in short games that keep shows fast-paced, funny and full of audience interaction. Their improv games, familiar to those who have watched "Whose Line Is It Anyway?," are all about using audience suggestions to drive their show. That means no two shows are alike.

The Harrisburg Improv Theatre is a performing arts theater specializing in long-form improvisational comedy. They offer weekly long-form improvisational comedy shows based on a one-word suggestion from the audience. In addition to shows every Friday and Saturday they also offer classes.

T.M.I. is Gamut Theatre Group's in-house improv comedy troupe, and is peopled by some of the most decent, charming and sweet-smelling folk you'd ever want to meet. Founded in 2007, T.M.I. specializes in long- and short-form, character-driven improv, where simple suggestions from the audience pave the way for improvised journeys that range from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Clark Nicholson, Artistic Director and Co-Founder of Gamut Theatre says "Harrisburg is very rich with groups dedicated to this new and emerging art from, and Gamut is proud to showcase not only our own TMI improv troupe, but also the talents of our hilarious friends and colleagues."
