Shakespeare imporov
So Tanner and I are in Chicago right now doing college visits and what not and he decided to buy tickets to see a Shakespeare improv show. It’s called “To thine own self be shrew” and basically you give them a location and they improv scenes from Shakespeare (i.e. Lady Macbeth in a women’s prison in upstate New York or Hamlet in a downtown LA strip club). Idk I think this is going to be interesting, but we’ll let you know...

The show Nic and I saw crossed Macbeth and Prohibition era Chicago. It was enjoyable, however it was also very amateurish. The troupe we saw (called "The Shrews") was a combination of varying skill levels. Out of the 8 people in the troupe, I'd say only 2 of them were truly good at improv.
I don't think I could have done any better, but compared to the show we saw at The Second City the next night, it was obvious these people were just a group of friends who wanted to perform.
