Their stories are comprised of universal characters who live in a world that is not black and white
***And for one night only! Howard Johnson Jr, local stand-up comedian performing regularly at The Punchline and The Purple Onion, guest stars as the monologist for Leela's Armando Company!
Developed by legendary improvisor and teacher, Armando Diaz (The Magnet, NYC), The Armando Diaz Theatrical Experience is a long-form improvised structure being played at improv houses across the country. The premise is simple. Truth inspires great improv. A guest monologist improvises true stories, and a cast of some of the best improvisors of the SF Bay Area improvise scenes inspired by these truths. What follows is a patchwork of truthful artistic play at its finest.
