IRTE, the Improvisational Repertory Theatre Ensemble, is back for its eleventh season of wildly funny and weirdly absurdist improvisation-based comedy theatre! This award-winning collective of comedy actors and writers develop, produce and perform original plays inspired by the Theatre of the Ridiculous movement, the work of Viola Spolin, and the indie comedy scene of turn-of-this-century's NYC. With a mix of simple costumes and dime store props, they bring to life broad irreverent characters for a fluid and hilarious night of improvised humor packed with social commentary.
My Thanksgiving Recipe (Chaos is the point) features a mostly female cast and a live musician. Together, they will discover that the moments that matter live within the mess and chaos of family gatherings. Even when following the "ideal recipe" for a picture-perfect Thanksgiving, control is an illusion.
Join the cast of IRTE as they gather ingredients for the perfect Thanksgiving Dinner. Find out what you are truly grateful for as time races by. In this improvised comedy of family and control, each will discover that chaos is the point
