About this Event
Let BATS show you a new side of the Bard! Join our jolly band of players as they spin a completely original, spontaneous tale for you of love, revenge, wit and wonderment, right before your very eyes. Based on a title we get from the audience, we will create a play full of all the things you love about Shakespeare and none of the stuff that traumatized you in 9th grade English class.
At BATS Improv, one of our core values is respect for our audience. We understand that some people hesitate to sit up front because they’re worried about being "picked on." That’s not our style.
While we may invite audience members to join us on stage, it’s always your choice—and if you do, we’ll treat you with the same respect and playfulness that we bring to the entire show. No embarrassment, no mean-spirited jokes—just a fun, welcoming experience for everyone.
So sit where you like, relax, and enjoy the show!

Please Note: Improv can be unpredictable! While most BATS performances are suitable for teens and some adventurous middle-schoolers, we recommend considering what other entertainment your child enjoys. We provide general show descriptions—like rom-com, comedy, or drama—and will flag any content that may include violence, such as in “Improvised Kung Fu.” Ultimately, we trust parents to use their judgment in deciding what’s appropriate for their child.
