"Wow, that's a cool after ChistmaHanaKwanzza gift idea!," said cast member Steve Duberchin.
This show will kick off the second season of laughs for Crazy Shades of Blue at their home base, Laugh out Loud Theater. "After School Special" is the follow-up to the successful "Gourmet Improv" shows from 2010. "After School Special" is an improvised comedy about controversial and socially relevant issues based very loosely on the popular TV show of the same name. The show takes place in a small town, where something special is happening, but side from that nothing is for sure.
As this is a completely improvised show, audience suggestions are used for everything from the name of each night's episode to casting the characters that will be found in that nights presentation. No two shows will ever be the same. "Aside from being a ton of laughs, I have no idea what is going to happen at each show!" cast member Lee Furnish said.
