April 12, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
THEY improv, leaders in college entertainment, continues to change the face of comedy in South Florida with their smokin' new show, "the 4-20 Study Break" at FIU on Friday, April 20th at FIU's Biscayne Bay Campus at 8pm. The show will feature some of South Florida's best comedic talent coming together to give FIU students a refreshing spark to carry them through finals.
"I've been there," said director of THEY improv Todd Rice. "We all have. It's great to get a break one way or another when cramming for exams. We're glad to help their troubles go away in a puff of smoke."
The comedy is bound to have them rolling all night long before they have to turn their papers in the following week.
THEY improv has performed at Universities as prestigious as Yale, but not often at educational institutions in South Florida.
Florida International University"It's nice to finally break into the local college scene," continued Rice. "We know that students around the country love us, but now our home town crowds will grow like weeds!"
"With finals beginning in just a few days," said Biscayne Bay Dramatics President John Morris, "we're giving students an oppurtunity to take a break from their studies this 4-20 and in the process have a great time, laugh, participate and maybe even learn something about improv and the theater."
The show is being offered through FIU's Biscayne Bay Dramatics theatre program and is free for all FIU students with ID. Non-FIU students must pay $5 for admission. There is no 2-drink minimum and no age requirement. And smoking is not allowed in the theatre.
Non-students may reserve seats by calling and leaving a message on the THEY improv Hotline at (954) 889-7540. THEY improv will provide the list to the University representatives and seats will be held back by them until 5 minutes prior to showtime. Doors open at 7:45 pm and the show begins at 8pm.
FIU's Biscayne Bay Campus is at 3000 NE 151st Street in North Miami. Simply go to US-1 (Biscayne Blvd.) and 151st Street and head East until you see FIU on the left. The show is in the Mary Ann Wolfe Theatre. Parking is allowed for non-students in the student parking area after 7pm.
