IMPROV MURDER MYSTERY - "IMPROV CAN BE DEADLY"
The GiggleMill Improv Comedy troupe has developed a new Improv comedy show called "Improv Can Be Deadly".
This hour-long interactive comedy show is a new concept in murder mysteries. The audience is involved in questioning suspects, uncovering clues and developing the plot. Some audience members become suspects themselves. The GiggleMill performers use interactive Improv techniques to re-enact the crime, and deflect guilt from themselves onto others. Even the performers don't know who the murderer is until the audience helps to determine the killer's identity. Loads of fun!

FAQ’s
What is Improv?
Improv is acting without a script. Each game contains obstacles that performers must overcome. For example, in some games, the performers cannot use understandable words (gibberish), or they must communicate only with body language (mime), or they are limited in what words they can use in portraying a scene. Audience members provide suggestions for plots and characters for each game as requested by the emcee, so that each game is spontaneous and absolutely original. The fun is in seeing how the performers overcome and use the obstacles placed in front of them.
Where has The GiggleMill performed before?
The GiggleMill has performed at a number of settings, be it theater, comedy club, reunion, women’s club, recreation center, 4H fair or other venue. Improv is suitable for almost any type of situation.
