"The Impys" - Improv Miami's Best Comedy Awards for
2004
South Florida's top improv troupes will be honored in the 1st
Annual Improv Miami Prizes or 'Impys' awards ceremony on Saturday,
December 4th, 8 pm at the Shores Performing Arts Theater. Showcase
performances will punctuate an evening filled with awards and
top-notch comedy from some of South Florida's premier local improv
troupes including Impromedy, Laughing Gas, Mod27 and Name Change
Pending. This event will showcase South Florida's top improvisational
talent in an evening that won't soon be forgotten. As the Improvmiami.com
slogan states, "And you thought our elections were funny!"
"South Florida has become a hotbed for some of the best talent
in the country over the last few years," said Ozzy Quintana,
director of Impromedy, nominated for three Impys.
Gerald Owens, director of Laughing Gas, noted, "It's nice
to have an award show that finally recognizes what all of us already
knew...that South Floridians are funny."
Designed to promote improvisation as an art form in South Florida,
the Impys are positioned to become an annual event to offer the
best of improv. Aventura Marketing Council member Telcom.net's
Todd Rice, who owns Improv Miami, said, "The audience is
in for a real treat as this community's top improv troupes will
be honored in four categories: Best Sketch, Best long-Form, Best
Short Form and Best Extreme Improv. Improv comedy delivers a special
brand of entertainment that has the audience participating by
initiating the action with their suggestions.
Improvisation has become a favorite among theater-goers, patrons
of the arts as well as college students, providing a unique take
on the human condition.
Tickets are $20 each, and $15 for students and senior citizens.
