Road Trip Improv Show

The road. That special place between places. The place where we cease to be inhabitants, and instead become travellers. Where we are no longer burdened with practicality and are finally able to ask deep questions.

The road is where we all become philosophers and poets. So buckle up, and come watch Dave Morris and Byron Kjeldsen in an improv show that takes place entirely in a car.

Like any road trip, there will be a lively conversation, awkward silence, some jokes, and, of course, snacks.

  • Where: Intrepid Theatre, 1609 Blanshard Street
  • When: Wednesday, December 14th, 8 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
