The second annual Rochester Improv Fringe Fest brings together local, regional, and college-level improv groups for a weekend-long riot of workshops, showcases, tournaments, and general revelry. It starts Friday, October 16, at 7 p.m. at the School of the Arts (45 Prince St) before swinging over to the Village Gate (274 N. Goodman St.) for a dedication ceremony. On Saturday, October 17 MuCCC (142 Atlantic Ave) will hold performances 9:30 a.m.-9:30 p.m., and conclude on Sunday, October 18, with, among other events, a "Churchprov" and a "Contact Improv Jam." That's only a taste of the many Fringe Fest events. Go to improvvip.com for detailed listings.
