September 18th, Generation A, along with the Grand Theater, brings together some of Utah's improv comedians on one stage for the 1st annual Battle of the Improvs at the Grand Theater in Salt Lake City. The event challenges these comedians to duke it out for the title of Utah's funniest, to be decided by the audience. Each troupe will compete with other troupes in both qualifying and elimination rounds, guaranteeing ample opportunity to see each troupe in action.

All proceeds for the show will go towards the Utah Local Festival of Arts to be held in Salt Lake City on Oct 9th. Attendance not only supports Utah's improv artists, but benefits the rapidly growing artistic community in Utah as a whole.
