I posted about this in the Los Angeles improv section, and thought it should also be here. thanks.

LA -
Previously I threw out the idea of putting up a 1 night mini improv festival.
Something at a non-improv theatre (the ART, Stella Adler, Complex, etc.) and having various improv teams play from approx 8pm-2am; a mini-marathon if you will.
Everyone i talked to seemed to like this idea. One of the major reasons I want to do this is to enhance the interest/popularity of live improv theatre in LA. With no interest/goals of having agents present or anything like that (although that is of course allowed), but to simply enjoy and cherish the art of improvisation. We've had SC and IOWest for a while, but with the recent addition to UCB into the community and the move of SC into the hollywood improv mecca the spark has been lit and its time to take advantage. By no means do we have the audiences of NY and Chicago, but this is the way to start that.
Bottom line: I am putting up this one night mini-festival. It wont be for quite some time but it is happening.
This is my question: Are you in?
Tell me: who you are, your team name, where you play, all basic info, etc.
Either post it here, or send me a personal email telling me your status.
thanks. i hope this works out. LA could use the boost.
