Three’s A Crowd (TAC) Presents
The “WE CAN’T AFFORD A DISNEY TRIP; SO, SHUT UP AND ENJOY OUR ‘FORT MILL’ VACATION” Improv Show.
Madison (my daughter) HAD to go on a “vacation” trip with a bunch of people and she really didn’t want to go. During the trip the chaperone cheerfully said to the group, "If you found 100.00 right now, what would you do with it"?
One girl said, "I'd save it for college"
Another girl said, "I’d buy new clothes"
Madison said, "I'd buy a bus ticket home"!!!
-Paul Marks
What to expect at the show: We take a suggestion from the audience and then run a 15 to 20 minute "play" based off that suggestion. And we'll do that 4 or 5 different times based on whatever scenario you come up with!!
In between some of the "plays" we'll improvise short form games like the show Who's Line is it Anyway!
The show will end at 9:47pm. We're relaxed like that!!
Tickets: 8.00 in advance/ 10.00 door. Click here to purchase your tickets in advance: vacationfortmill.eventbrite.com
