Formerly known as Transactors, we are the longest-running, oldest improvisational theater in the South. Our work focuses on emotion, physicality, character, collaboration, and fun.
Upcoming Shows
Holiday Scenes and Songs
Dec. 4, 7:30-9:15 PM, The ArtsCenter, Carrboro
This two-act show follows five characters as they experience the holiday season in the present and in memory. Based on suggestions from the audience—which will even help create a new carol—the scenes, songs, and choreography are all made up on the spot.
Tickets: $25 general, $15 student
Word Jazz
March 26,
7:00-8:45 PM, Sharp Nine Gallery Jazz Club, Durham
Word Jazz, Actors Improv’s mashup of improvised theater and music, returns to Sharp Nine! Inspired by Ken Nordine’s eponymous 1957 album, Word Jazz is comprised of scenes based on improvised monologues and live music by a quintet. Spontaneous songs also figure into the mixture and it’s all initiated by audience suggestions.
Tickets: $30 general, $20 student. This show tends to sell out, so get your tickets early!
