Trapped In a Rumor Improv to Perform Benefit for Down Syndrome Connection of the Bay Area

The improv company is wildly inventive and often draws on audience participation to fuel its hilarious performances. It will be at the Village Theater on Saturday.

If  "laughter is the best medicine," then comedy improv company Trapped in a Rumor is sure to dispense a good dose Saturday at the Village Theater

Trapped in a Rumor, founded in 2009, has seven members who perform improvisational comedy sketches monthly. That's right, the sketches are made up on the spot and often involve audience participation—similar to the show "Whose Line is it Anyway?"

The show is sponsored in part by the Town of Danville and will benefit the Down Syndrome Connection of the Bay Area.
