GOOD ON PAPER!
8:30PM @ THE ALLUVION
Good on Paper Improv was established in 2010. They are a six-member troupe that transforms audience suggestions into spontaneous comedy scenes. Their high-energy performances, reminiscent of "Whose Line Is It, Anyway?", have entertained audiences for over a decade. Each show is a unique blend of quick wit and unpredictable humor, ensuring no two performances are alike. They are Traverse City's longest-running improv group who "retired" their regular shows back in July 2025. They can still bring it back as a former cornerstone of the local comedy scene, delivering laughter and creativity with every act.
