"About An Hour" Playing Nightly at the 2008 Toronto Fringe Festival
presented by Hatzenbaker
from Toronto
For most actors the idea of taking a single audience suggestion and improvising a one act comedy in 60 minutes is a frightening proposition. But for the "fearless performers" (Toronto Star) of "About an Hour" it's the perfect formula for creating this critically-acclaimed improv comedy.
Every night of the Fringe "four of the city's best comic minds" (NOW Magazine) take all the elements of a good Fringe play, including engaging characters and electric storytelling, and combine them with the spontaneity of improv to "pull a funny but focused real-time story out of their collective ass." (EYE Weekly).
Directed by three-time Canadian Comedy Award winner Lisa Merchant the cast of About An Hour are no strangers to comedy. Featuring Jim Annan ( Second City ), Jan Caruana (Show Stopping Number, best of the Fringe 2007), Rob Baker (Second City Touring Company) and Alex Hatz (Bad Dog Theatre).
