2.19: Color Study Improv Night •°°•°•°° Part Two
2018-02-19 22:00 - 2018-02-20 01:00 | THE COMET, 4579 Hamilton Ave, Cincinnati, OH, 45223, United States
Join us for a full night of Improvised goodness and colorful craziness. This is the second installment of Monday Night at The Comet’s Color Study Game!
If you’re unfamiliar with the game, here’s the gist:
There will be a group of improvisers predetermined for the night. At the beginning of the night and each Color Study “round”, the audience will get a chance to write down the names of colors (the wilder, more descriptive or abstract, the better) and place them into a hat. Once everyone has entered their slips of paper into the color hat, another hat with the names of the improvisers on paper will be drawn from and those artists will be called to the stage. After choosing artists, we’ll choose a color and then tune in and see how the artists choose to interpret that particular color!
Our team of colorful creators are:
°• Triiibe
°• James Ricks
°• Max Vignola of Lipstick Fiction
°• Latria
°• Alessandro Corona
°• Laura Lane

*Night kicks off around 10pm
*Kitchen open until 1am
