IRTE Welcomes Everyone to the 2013 Season


We're performing five different shows this season. Last year we did four. The logistics are being worked out as we speak. Two performances of each show are going to be done at Gotham City Improv for $6. We're shooting to have other performances, possibly at different venues around NYC. Knock on wood.

The Groovy Gang Adventures
Original Concept by Nannette Deasy, Directed by Pat Shay

Jinkies! The Groovy Gang is up to their old tricks in IRTE's latest long-form improvisational comedy. Join your favorite band of teen sleuths and their talking alligator drummer Chompers, as they solve yet another spooky mystery.

INTERLUDES 2063
Original Concept and Directed by Alex Decaneas
Produced by Alistair Firebrand

In a world where chaos is king, one traveling theater troupe remains, forever on tour.

Well met, mutants! IRTE improv returns to perform as INTERLUDES. Set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, INTERLUDES is the last regional touring theater company taking bookings. Based on audience suggestions, this menagerie of performers will astonish with comic tales of days past - if they don’t kill each other first!

vIRTEgo Circus
Original Concept and Directed by Nannette Deasy

In the back roads of Anywhere, USA, a travelling carnival of lost souls and circus misfits will perform games and scenes based entirely on your wicked suggestions. Just be careful what you wish for.

vIRTEgo Circus! Something funny this way comes!

SPACE PROBE
Original Concept by Robert Baumgardner
Directed by Bleep Blorp BoobleAaks VII

The crew of the SS Buzz Aldrin flounders in deep space. Their only option...get a tow to the nearest planet from AakAak Towing. One problem, AakAak only takes payment in the local currency of Grudax.

Follow our intrepid crew as they improvise life among the aliens of a planet they know absolutely nothing about. Can they find work as foreigners to pay the towing charges? Is that alien dueling, or proposing marriage? How much can a faster than light propulsion unit cost? Come see the fun of IRTE's next fully improvised comedy, and find out what happens. Will our explorers get off, or will they get...PROBED?

The Clique
Original Concept and Directed by Jeff O’Leary

You got what it takes to hang with the cool kids? What are you: a burn-out, band geek, goth kid, jock, bookworm, skater, emo kid, cheerleader, stoner dude, preppy wannabe, choir kid, drama nerd? What’s it gonna be? Make up your mind, kid – this school is a warzone and if you don’t find a posse to back you up, you’re gonna get caught in the crossfire.

IRTE presents an evening of long-form improv  based on the high school experiences of one of our audience members. And that audience member could be you!

It's time to hang with the cool kids, with the real rulers of this school. It’s time to hang with...THE CLIQUE
