SEATTLE – April 16, 2010 – Audiences will burst their corsets and ascots with laughter this spring as Late Night at Taproot brings Taproot Improv Comedy back to the Mainstage. Building on the hilarity of the Victorian farce Charley’s Aunt running May 12 through June 12, Taproot’s rollicking, uproarious improv team hits the stage every Friday night with their best material. Of course, it’s not written yet, because the audience supplies the ideas! With split-second timing and talent galore, audiences are bound to have a good time. Taproot Improv Comedy takes place on May 21 and 28 and June 4 and 11, at approximately 10:30 p.m., or shortly after the performance of Charley’s Auntends.
Tickets are just $10, or $8 with a ticket to Charley’s Aunt. Group pricing is available for parties of 8 or more. Tickets are available at the door only, no advance sales.
About Charley’s Aunt:
Taproot Theatre continues its 34th season with Brandon Thomas’ classic hit, Charley’s Aunt, May 14 through June 12 (previews May 12 and 13). Debuting in London in 1892, Charley’s Aunt’s original production ran 1,466 performances. The story has since been the subject of multiple film and stage adaptations. A quiet afternoon luncheon turns into a hilarious masquerade when college chums attempt to woo a pair of charming young ladies. After persuading a classmate to impersonate their missing aunt (and chaperone), mischief, high jinks and shenanigans ensue.
