BWW Review: Impro Theatre Brings Stylized, Dramatic Improv to SB with TWILIGHT ZONE: UNSCRIPTED
A lengthy, stylized improvised narrative, especially one that isn't rooted in the predictable contingency of absurd comedy, is a sophisticated practice—one that Impro Theatre, a Los Angeles-based improvisational group presented in Santa Barbara by Instant Karma Improv Comedy, presents in abundance.

BWW Preview: Impro Theatre and Instant Karma Present the Middle Ground Between Scripted Scenes and Complete Chaos in TWILIGHT ZONE UNSCRIPTED
There are many dimensions of performance art--some beyond that of traditional theatre. These dimensions are as vast as space and as timeless as infinity, and in the middle ground between scripted scenes and complete chaos is a performance style we call 'Improvisational Theatre.'
