BWW Review: Impro's TENNESSEE WILLIAMS UNSCRIPTED Scores at the Falcon

If you have never seen a production of the Impro Theatre Company, be aware that the play you see is one-time only.

Everything that happens is spontaneous and will never be repeated in another performance. It makes me question what the job of the director, in this case member Brian Lohmann, actually is?
