9/26 IS SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY

Next weekend we're sitting down with Bookery Games in Fairborn for our monthly business spotlight! DO NOT COPY opens the night, then, an interview where we learn all about our featured business. The rest of the night, we improvise scenes based on that interview.

Help us show some love to our friends at Bookery Games; buy your tickets now ➡️ daytonblackboximprov.com

SMALL BIZ SATURDAY 8/29

Star Crossed Productions brings Shakespeare to our theatre ✨ and has bravely partnered with us in a special production of Tempest - IMPROVISED!

The show will kick off with improv scenes based on an on-stage interview with the cast and crew, then one SCP actor will perform their memorized lines while we do the rest (and hope for the best).
