"The best troupe I've seen in Kansas City
in over ten years... The games are consistently funny, with big laughs and 'subtle stuff,' and their bench is deep with inspired comics.... They totally ruled the enormous [Improv] comedy club."
— Alan Scherstuhl of The Pitch
"Improv-Abilities has everything you want in a comedy troupe:
A diverse cast, deep talent base, directors who love improv, and the drive to push themselves every time they set foot on stage. With their involvement in the "Improv Everywhere" movement and continuing experimentation with show formats, I-A is the most delightfully playful group in KC's growing improv scene."
— Trish Berrong, local improv director, previously of Lighten Up improv company
"I was laughing so hard
I had to clean my glasses before I could drive my car"
— Christopher Myers, Jan 18, 2006
"[You] had our (pretty straight-laced) crowd
laughing loudly within moments
of beginning their show and kept us laughing throughout! Their antics were tailored just for us, as they teased us into laughing at ourselves without ever being offensive! Furthermore, they were entirely professional and easy to work with! We hope to engage them again soon!"
— Jackie Thomas, Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc.
"You guys are hysterical!
You had our singles group in tears--in a good way! People are still talking about the "blind date" skit! You guys are amazingly creative. We will be booking you again!"
— Michelle, Church of the Resurrection
You are a work of art!
Love your shows!
— Berniece O'Reilly, Prairiie Village, Kansas
Those guys look great in spandex!
— Lora Shifflet, Kansas City, MO, after an "Improv-Abilities On Ice" show
"The show has a charming
hey-do-your-folks-know-we're-down-here?
vibe ... Improv-Abilities doesn't need to work blue to score laughs."
— Alan Scherstuhl, The Pitch,

"Really enjoy the evening with you.
Always witty, entertaining and plenty of surprises, well done! Thank you, we will be back!"
— Bill Hodgson
"Their show is super fun,
and the improv is as good or better than some of the shows that I saw living in L.A. for 12 years."
— Melissa Potts
"I saw 2 of IMPROV-ABILITIES' shows
at The Dallas Comedy Festival and was very impressed. These guys (and gal) are very fast and funny! Their show includes new takes on some very fun improv games. They are talented, fearless and a joy to watch!!!"
— J*, Artistic Director, The Basement Theatre, Atlanta, Georgia
"We want to REALLY thank you for last night.
You made the night a great success! ... I heard nothing but compliments afterward about your group."
—Jennifer Dartt, Good Samaritan Project (private show)
"Superfreaky and Great!"
— Erin Ferriter
"Saw you at the [2005 Kansas City] Fringe Festival and thought you were great
. . . I've seen a number of improv shows around KC in recent months and yours is without a doubt the funniest. I'm looking forward to another fine performance."
— Nancy B., Kansas City, Mo.
