This May DSI Comedy Theater is giving comedy audiences a chance to unload some of their secrets with the debut of Wikileaks. Each week a cast of DSI comedians will be improvising scenes based on secrets shared from the audience and people on stage. This hilarious and riveting new show will run Fridays at 9:30 p.m. throughout the month of May and will feature a special guest. Tickets at $10 and are available at the door and online at www.dsicomedy.com. DSI Comedy Theater is located at 200 N. Greensboro Street, in the Carr Mill Mall between Elmo's and Southern Rail.

It is a simple premise. DSI's nimble cast will create scenes and characters based on the secrets the audiences share. Secrets can be shared on paper when audiences come through the door, they can be emailed in advance to leaks@dsicomedy.com, or the cast might even share some secrets of their own. The show is directed by DSI Executive Producer Zach Ward and features a cast of DSI regulars including Andy Lavender, Paula Pazderka, John Reitz, Katy Jack, and Shane Smith.

The show will be entirely guided by the audience's participation. The cast will show the absurdity of the way these truths resemble the butterfly effect and consequences ripple through the world of characters in the show.
