You make me laugh

Or you would if you were going to some kinda wonderful Improv Festival tonight or tomorrow night at the St. Clare Theater (1119 N. Townsend St.) around the corner from the Church of the Assumption on N. Salina Street.

The Thumbs UPstate Improv festival runs from 5:30 p.m. Friday April 8 to midnight Saturday April 9 at the St. Clare Theater in Syracuse. Doors open to the public for shows at 6:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

The idea for this festival came out of the Salt City DISHES event where innovative projects from the under 40 set were presented and voted on at a community dinner, and the winner received a $1,000 prize to implement their idea. The winner will present on their project's progress at the next Salt City DISHES event on May 1. Tickets on sale soon at Craft Chemistry on N. Salina Street.
