IMPROV COMEDY | #DWCF26| SATURDAY May 16 | Ant Hall | 8PM

Join us SATURDAY May 16, 8PM in ANT HALL and enjoy some improv comedy from Michigan-based teams Young Miss and A Touching Affair!

Young Miss aka Caity Shea, Courtney Kamen, Nuverre Naami, Molly Alampi, Jen Bloomer, Alex Nessi: Your Midwest Heartthrobs.

A Touching Affair aka Lisa Thauvette (she/her), Madison Meter (she/her), Betsy Soukup (she/her), Aaron Balestrero (he/him): Blending audience nostalgia with the dramatic flair of your chain smoking aunt's favorite soap opera, A Touching Affair (Madison Meter, Lisa Thauvette, Betsy Soukup, and musical accompanist Aaron Balestrero) will take you on a musically improvised journey of the heart. Based in Traverse City, MI representing Full Tilt Comedy, improvisers Madison, Lisa, and Betsy alongside their smoldering piano accompanist, Aaron Balestrero, unironically share the same lower back tattoo: “Why say it when you can sing it?”
