from Toronto
For most actors the idea of taking a single audience
suggestion and improvising a one act comedy in 60 minutes is a frightening
proposition. But for the "fearless performers" ( Toronto
Star) of "About an Hour" it's the perfect formula for creating this
critically-acclaimed improv comedy.
Every night of the Fringe "four of the city's best
comic minds" (NOW Magazine) take all the elements of a good Fringe play,
including engaging characters and electric storytelling, and combine them with
the spontaneity of improv to "pull a funny but focused real-time story out
of their collective ass." (EYE Weekly).
Directed by three-time Canadian Comedy Award winner Lisa
Merchant the cast of About An Hour are no strangers to comedy. Featuring Jim
Annan ( Second City
), Jan Caruana (Show Stopping Number, best of the Fringe 2007), Rob Baker
(Second City Touring Company) and Alex Hatz (Bad Dog Theatre).
