The group bases their show\u00a0on skits from popular shows such as \u201cWhose Line is it Anyway?\u201d and \u201cWild \u2018N Out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before the show, some IMSA students watched videos from the group&#8217;s past performances online and\u00a0said that they did not find them to be very funny.\u00a0 However, during the show, the performers, or &#8220;agents&#8221; as they called themselves, brought energy to the stage that pumped up the audience and made everything funnier. It seemed that improv is a form of entertainment that is much more enjoyable when one is a part of the show. By involving the audience, Mission IMPROVable created a unique and engaging experience for the IMSA community.<\/p>\n<p>Being able to shape the show and watching the actors change their behavior based upon audience recommendations\u00a0 made the show \u00a0entertaining.\u00a0 The show was a huge hit and hopefully CAB can continue to bring high quality entertainment to IMSA.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you missed the show, look out for a recording on <a title=\"IMSA Student Productions\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imsastudentproductions.com\/\">www.imsastudentproductions.com<\/a>!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year CAB hosts a variety of events for students&#8217; enjoyment.\u00a0 On Thursday, January 16, they were able to book Mission IMPROVable, a highly rated&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":12026,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1020,1019],"tags":[1866,2194,2193],"coauthors":[2101],"class_list":["post-12023","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ae","category-imsanews","tag-cab","tag-comedy","tag-mission-improvable"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12023","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/58"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12023"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12023\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12027,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12023\/revisions\/12027"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12026"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12023"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12023"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12023"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.imsa.edu\/acronym\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=12023"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
