Oakton hosts entertaining night of improvisational comedy Dec. 8

Get ready for side-splitting laughter when Oakton Community College’s student improvisation group, OMG! Improv, takes the stage at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 8, at Studio One, 1600 E. Golf Road, Des Plaines.

OMG! Improv, founded by Oakton speech lecturer and Second City Conservatory graduate David Nadolski in 2011, frequently performs at some of Chicago’s most popular comedy venues and bases its skits on suggestions from the audience.

“Improv is one of the hardest forms of entertainment, as performers have to prepare a comedic scene on the spot,” Nadolski says. “Audiences will be thoroughly entertained by our group’s chemistry and ingenuity. It promises to be an entertaining evening.”

The improvisational group recently was featured in a prime Saturday slot during the Grand Rapids Improv Festival (GRIF) in the Dog Story Theater in downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan.

“It was a great honor for us to attend,” Nadolski adds.
