Local Spot (Baltimore, MD)  Local Spot performs a character-driven monoscene that starts slow and grounded using an audience suggestion from a color swatch book and a scene paint, but picks up quickly. The show focuses on interesting character dynamics and frequent entrances and exits, allowing the audience to see how characters interact when they’re alone vs. when they’re with others. Secrets come out, alliances are made and broken, and someone usually falls in love. It’s always a roller coaster!

Quicksand (NYC, NY) James Quesada & Julia Schroeder are a couple IRL (brag) and a seasoned duo on stage (BRAG!). As Quicksand, their blend of improv and clown has been called ‘child-like pure play’ and ‘joyfully absurd’. They have performed in festivals all over the country, including NYC, Detroit, Omaha, Providence, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Baltimore, and Chicago.

Improñol (Chicago, IL)   Improñol is a groundbreaking improvisational duo that masterfully blends the cultural and linguistic nuances of the U.S. and Venezuela into an enthralling narrative. This unique performance transcends conventional storytelling by erasing linguistic barriers, allowing English and Spanish to flow together as one. The duo expertly crafts memorable characters and relationships, thrusting them into a whirlwind of scenarios that unfold in a fast-paced, dynamic showcase. Their ability to switch languages seamlessly not only entertains but also bridges cultural gaps, offering audiences a rich, inclusive experience.

Played Out (Ontario, Canada) Buckle up for a rollercoaster ride of laughter and emotion as a previously nonexistent theatre masterpiece is brought to life before your very eyes! Slow and steady makes a play. SODA Improv's approach to improvised plays is heavily character-driven and prefers a chaos theory approach to plot development, which elevates the importance of theme over structure. Played Out begins with long scenes for organic discovery, and allows characters' emotional truths to drive the narrative and get them into trouble. Characters and relationships are allowed to be complex and contradictory, because they serve no other purpose than to exist as who and what they are. Oliver Georgiou joins forces with very special guests Tara DeFrancisco, Rance Rizzutto, and Doug Kolbicz for an unforgettable experience every live theatre fanatic will appreciate.
