After several years as a headlining house team at The PIT, Gypsy Danger is bringing their unique brand of improv to The Tank! Based on a suggestion from the audience, a spin of their "Wheel of Genres," and utilizing the tropes and cliches of Hollywood, Gypsy Danger will improvise a never-before-seen movie! Possibilities include a traditional romantic comedy, a lakeside slasher horror, a bleak Southern Gothic drama or anything in between!
Gypsy Danger specializes in fully committed spontaneously created live on stage movies. With the help of an audience suggestion and a spin on their Wheel of Genres you never know what will happen. Genres might include: Horror, Sci-Fi, Southern Gothic, Family Drama, Rom Com, Nicholas Sparks type Rom Dram, Super Hero, Noir, or Western to name a few! They have performed at Boston Comedy Festival, Chicago Improv Festival and NYC Improv Festival.
Gypsy Danger is Joanna Shaw Flamm, Katie Hartman, Devin Heater, Ben Jaeger-Thomas, Evan Kaufman, Sarah Peele, and Claire Yale.
