Join us for Read the Room, where the Triangle's hottest up-and-coming stand-up comics take the stage to show off their stuff! Pivot Point: As Semisonic famously observed, every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end. Pivot Point takes the last text received by an audience member and uses it as the first line of a fully improvised show. Each scene then hands off to the next through a single line of dialogue, sending the story in unexpected directions. A disgruntled roommate, a grocery list, a cryptic "we need to talk"... you never know where a single text might lead. Candy is a long-form improv show based on a conversation with you, the audience. Corey and Andy may play two or many characters, in one or multiple locations, telling a story or just exploring a point in time. Like any good conversation, the format is free-flowing and the shows are all different, but we'll all enjoy ourselves!
