Kansas
City has a new home for live comedy in Westport.
The Kick
Comedy Theater will open
on January 7, 2012. It is a Saturday-only theater, in the digs
of the Westport Coffeehouse
Theater, the space downstairs
from the coffeehouse itself, at 4010 Pennsylvania.
With
renovations, the theater will be conveniently wedged between
the coffeeshop and the new Green
Room Burgers & Beer,
slated to open on in early January as well. Laugh-seekers can
enter from the coffeehouse or through the bar.
The KC
Improv Company - formerly Improv-Abilities - is producing the
shows.
Their
actors/improvisers have run the KC Improv Training Center since
2010, and they are expanding to three different classes, including
one to be held at the Kick Comedy Theater on Saturday afternoons.
Two classes are held Monday evenings in Johnson County, Kansas.
The Kick
Theater shows will be adults-only shows, and they will involve
frequent appearances by groups other than the KC Improv Co. Co-director
Tim Marks says he is working to line up nationally known
groups that have performed at the KC Improv Festival, as well
as top local groups.
