VTSL Invites You To Celebrate Dear Ol' Dad At THE SUPERDAD SHOW

Join Vancouver TheatreSports (VTSL) on Sunday, June 17 at 2:00pm for The SuperDad Show, a special matinee performance in celebration of an often-unsung superhero - dear ol' Dad.

The SuperDad Show pokes fun at the foibles and complexities of what it means to be a father these days. Based on audience suggestions, VTSL's quick-witted improvisers could explore such relevant topics as 'the sensitive Dad', 'Dads and their love affair with the barbecue', 'hockey Dads', 'Dad, can I have the keys to the car?' or 'Dads and daughters', to name a few possibilities. We are sure you are going to hear a few familiar phrases or 'Dadisms' such as: "Do you think I'm made of money?", "When I was your age...", "You're not going out in that are you?", and the classic "You'll understand when you're older."

This special family-friendly show takes place at 2:00pm so there's plenty of time afterward to take Dad out for dinner or to fire up the barbecue.

Tickets are value-priced at only $25 and includes the show PLUS either a glass of house wine, beer on tap, or non-alcoholic beverage. Tickets are on sale now at vtsl.com.

The Neil Macrae Bar & Lounge at VTSL's Improv Centre will open that day at 1:00pm for pre-show beverages and, weather permitting, the patio deck overlooking the picturesque marina will also be open to patrons. Don't forget, because The Improv Centre is a fully-licensed facility, VTSL patrons have the option of taking their beverages into the theatre to enjoy during the show.

Give your 'super' Dad some belly laughs instead of headaches, and bring him down to The Improv Centre for an afternoon of improv hilarity. Besides, he needs something to take his mind off the fact that the Canucks didn't make the playoffs. Warning: The SuperDad Show may contain 'Dad jokes.'

Founded in 1980, VTSL has grown to become a well-respected international leader in the improv art form.
