BOOKENDS ~ An Improvised Musical Between the Pages

About The Show

Any sketch can become a Musical! That is the challenge being presented to our wonderfully talented music improv professionals at BOOKENDS. Sketches that have been prior selected by the directors of Bookends are given to the cast, sight-unseen, on the night of the performance. With scripts-in-hand, our cast will open every show performing the scenes as written and launch into a full improvised narrative musical based on the characters, the setting, the world of that sketch.
