We’re old!! In more ways than one.
Founded in 1993 by Chris Lane and Ric Shoemaker, FFN joined MadLab theatre in December of 2000 with CANNIBAL CHRISTMAS. Since then, FFN’s improv has expanded to create performances into its own unique brand of long-form and short-form games. FFN has also helped to develop original scripts through the improv process.
What is improv?
Improvisational theatre (also known as improv) is a form of theatre in which the improvisational actors/improvisers use improvisational acting techniques to perform spontaneously. Improvisers typically use audience suggestions to guide the performance as they create dialogue, setting, and plot extemporaneously. Improvisational theatre performances tend to be comedic, although some forms are not necessarily intended to be comedic.
