Sweet, congrats iron improvisers! Can't wait to see these guys.

What about the reunion show, who's in that? I'll play, run lights, make popcorn, or hell, pay full price and sit in the audience.

I would like to come see the shows, but I can't make them all and I would love a full schedule with cast members so I can go to the shows with the people I'd like to see. If you don't want to post it, can you email me??

Also, will there a frequent flyer pass??

Thanks! Traveling back to the past is a pain. The time lag is a bitch.

Is this a pre-planned thing with pre-planned players
or more jammish like at the same year's party?

Little bit of both. We put out invites to past maestro and mainstage players. The basic plan is to start with everyone and peel off later years over the course of the show until we're left with the founding members. It's gonna be a bit crazy, but we'll make it work.

Love. Love. Love. Such an awesome weekend! I loved the energy. Loved
seeing old friends. Loved meeting new people. Getting a good luck
at the past through old photos and videos and talks with people new and old.

Thanks!!!

This was honestly a blast, I loved all the Iron Improviser shows Gorilla, Theatersports, Maestro.
I loved my team Roulette with Asaf Ronen and Chris Allen! I'd never really played theatersports with an ad-hoc team before but it was so much fun and very supportive and inspiring!
The BBQ and all the late night hanging out with improvisers old and new was super fun. The AIC is such a good mix of community and performance! I love performing and working at the Hideout, and this weekend helped cement that feeling for me even more.
Hip hip Hooray!

This was a very fun weekend. Hooray!! I got to see the Gorilla shows, and then the Reunion show. So sorry I missed the other stuff, especially the Micetro! Ug!! This is why you have to go see EVERY improv show possible!

I loved getting to see a sampling of 10 years of Heroes imps and I had a great time working with Billy (keyboardist) to score that show. Hope to see more of these long lost imps!!
