Self IMPROVment is teaming up with the Reif Performing Arts Center to bring you Winter is a Beach, a night of improv and sketch comedy Thursday, January 23. Warm up on a cold winter night when the Ives studio theater becomes Sunova Beach.

Self IMPROVment has grown during the last year, performing regularly at Klockow Brewing, and other venues throughout the Grand Rapids Area, and they will bring some of their best games like guess what? and blind date to the beach, along with a few other favorites. Expect energetic interaction as they use audience suggestions to bring scenes to life.

Along with improv, the night will feature sketches written by Nate Pace, Rachelle Randle, and Andy Mattfield, all set on Sunova Beach. Theres a cooking show, a magical transformation, and a mermaid. There is a witch, an interpretive dance, and kumquats.

These are sketches written by people in and around the Self IMPROVment family explained Aaron Jordan Peterson, we want to showcase the incredible talent in the Grand Rapids area. We are grateful to Shantel Dow and the Reif Center for supporting local artists, and giving us this opportunity.
