Improvisational comedy, performing comedy without a script, was made widely popular by the television show Whose Line is it Anyway? and has been performed by local groups in Western New York for more than a decade. Defiant Monkey Improv is a duo performing what they call “theatrical improv” and was founded by two local veterans of the improv world, Karen Eichler and Andrew Spragge.

Featured in March’s show will be musician Dan Schroeder, who will be providing live piano accompaniment to Defiant Monkey’s improvisation. Included in these scenes will be improvised songs based on audience suggestions.

About Kristen Becker

As a producer/performer, Becker started the Dykes Of Hazard (DOH) Comedy Tour, and three years after its inception, DOH is taking giant steps into the hetero clubs hitting venues such as the House of Blues, New Orleans and M Bar Hollywood. Can you say crossover artists? Apparently allergic to sleep, in her hometown of Buffalo, NY, in an effort to build a comedy scene, Kristen kicked off the Doin' Time Comedy Showcase, providing a stage for the artform, in a city that needed a good laugh. Three years later multiple open mic rooms have popped up across the city and The Tuesday night Showcase remains a staple in the Rust Belt.
