The DnD Improv Show: NINE

DnD Improv—Gas Station Arts Centre

The phenomenon is back with a brand new saga to offer to hungry nerds (like myself). The concept is simple, an adventure story is told through long form improv. If the characters sense something is amiss or get in a fight, two gigantic twenty sided dice are rolled to see how good or bad the outcome will be for the various characters. The cast is handpicked every year and features some of the best improv artists in the entire city. They are masters of their craft and leave you hanging on their every word. What is most interesting to me is that the show builds upon the last ‘episode’. Each night further develops the story, which means that you have to keep coming back if you want to find out what happens next. This formula has worked well and continues to add to this troupe’s overwhelming success. This is a definite must see for any fringer looking for a little nerdy action.
