THEY Improv Takes on Morissette, Musingly
by Michael Sasser

Two favorites meet, clash and will produce plenty of laughs when live comedy meets lovingly loopy pop singer Alanis Morissette to begin the month of June.

THEY improv will provide a birthday salute to crazy vocalist Alanis Morissette in the Mental Ward in Fort Lauderdale, on Friday, June 1st at 9pm.

THEY improv are leaders in South Florida comedy, and it continues its pioneering ways with the tribute. "Alanis in the Mental Ward" will feature over an hour of experimental acoustical comedy at the Mental Ward.

"What better place to hold an Alanis Morissette tribute than in a Mental Ward," said Director Todd Rice. "Her birthday should be in a Mental Ward. Her last top 40 single was 'Crazy' wasn't it? I think it was self-titled."

The show will feature some of South Florida's best comedic talent coming together to give heart wrenching emotional comedy that any South Florida audience can enjoy.

THEY improv issued a warning when the show was announced: "All attending audience members will receive a jagged little pill. Disclaimer: All audience members may take the Jagged Little Pill at their own risk. They may wake up outside of the Matrix!"

All attending audience members will also sign a birthday card for Alanis hoping that she gets well from the Mental Ward.

This is part of a series of monthly themed shows THEY improv will be presenting at the Mental Ward on the first Friday of each month at 9pm in an often adventurous and always different show.

This marks the third show held at the Mental Ward and it is just beginning to build momentum. The shows are now at 9pm (an hour later than previous shows) and should be more accessible to audiences.

"It's been said that THEY belong in a Mental Ward," said Rice. "Now we're there!"

So get your hand out of your pocket and come enjoy this one-time event.

"We're not sure that this show will help Alanis' well-being," said Rice. "But it will help our audience laugh!"

The cover charge for the comedy room is $5 paid to the Mental Ward (cash only).

It is quite possible that the event will sell out

Often performing for charities, THEY improv is changing the face of comedy in South Florida. Though THEY normally perform private events for area corporations, THEY can be seen in various venues in the area and the website at www.THEYimprov.com is regularly updated with information about upcoming events and shows.

Live comedy is hit-or-miss in South Florida, so it's generally a good idea to take advantage of such opportunities when they come along.

Keep an eye out for other productions by THEY improv - it is worth the effort.
