The Theme Park Improv Show's improvisers take a single suggestion from the audience, and wing an entire set of fast-paced long-form scenes and characters, based on stories from special guest monologist Kevin Pollak ("The Usual Suspects"). After several years of sold-out shows, they return to SF Sketchfest with another stellar lineup: Ian Brennan (co-creator of "Glee"), Rachel Dratch ("Saturday Night Live"), Ana Gasteyer ("Saturday Night Live"), Simon Helberg ("The Big Bang Theory"), Michael Hitchcock ("Best in Show"), Jessica Makinson ("South Park"), Oscar Nuñez ("The Office"), Cole Stratton ("Impeachment: American Crime Story"), Janet Varney ("Stan Against Evil"), and Gary Anthony Williams ("The Boondocks"). This will be a show you won't soon forget!
