FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THEY improv to
Participate in Conscious Artist Collective Groove Series to benefit
Darfur on July 19th.
Hollywood,
FL: THEY improv, South Florida's leaders in
corporate comedy entertainment, joins with artists from throughout
the area to benefit Darfur, Sudan.
The Conscious Artist Collective, three-part groove series which
focuses on Darfur, Sudan, continues with world music band Jahfe
and nationally recognized comedy company THEY Improv on Thursday,
July 19th at the Hollywood Central Performing Arts Center. The
event begins at 7pm with THEY improv performing later in the show.
The theatre is located at 1770 Monroe St. Hollywood. Amidst live
music, spoken poetry, cocktails and comedy, people gather to meet,
laugh, and learn about the current upsetting climate of Darfur,
Sudan.
From the official release:
The successful opening for the series led THEY Improv to perform
for the next two events. “THEY Improv is the perfect counter-balance
to the heavy subject-matter presented at the event…” says Event
Co-producer, Gustavo David Ortiz, “…the comedy allowed all that
built-up emotion to be released through laughter, and everyone
left feeling uplifted and full of positive energy…”
Host and spoken word artist Wilkine Brutus will continue to welcome
audiences for the next two events.
Artists from all over South Florida have stepped up to the plate
including THEY Improv, The American Poets, Jahfe, Kaponeisill,
WorkEthic, Jedi Outcast Crew, just to name a few.

"We are proud to do what we can to help," said THEY
improv Director Todd Rice. "It's easy to be overwhelmed by
the size of the problem, laughter helps people carry on and to
make a difference."
