Improv at The Waldo - one night only!
For one night only, The Waldo Theatre will be hosting “Yourville,” a completely improvised comedy show inspired by the characters, events, and history of the area where you’re from on Saturday, Nov. 23 at 7:30 p.m. The show is generally considered to be rated PG-13.
Created by Jeremy Brothers and Ryan Gaul, “Yourville,” features some of the funniest improv and sketch performers from around the country. In the vein of “Whose Line Is It Anyway,” the games and scenes are all inspired by suggestions from audience interviews, local newspapers, and what the talk of the town has been in and around your area.
“I grew up down the road in Damariscotta,” said Ryan Gaul, an LA-based writer and actor from “The Last O.G.,” and “Superstore.” “So being able to do the show at the Waldo Theatre is a bit of a homecoming for me. I’m looking forward to being able to perform again in the area.”
Gaul and Brothers’ feature-length horror film, “McCurdy Point, A Ghost Story,” is having its Maine premiere at the Lincoln Theater (where it all began) in Damariscotta on Nov. 2.
“I fell in love with Midcoast Maine and the people when we were shooting the movie. I can’t wait to get back up there and have a blast,” added Brothers. “We’ve gathered some of our favorite people to play with who all have ties to the area, and there may be some surprise guests!”
General admission tickets are available for $20 in advance, $25 the day of the event. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. to purchase tickets and concessions. Visit www.waldotheatre.org for more information about tickets, upcoming events, and parking.
