The stakeout and improvised musical

Looking for something exciting to do over the weekend? Downtown Dayton’s got you covered! On Sept. 8, check out the yet-to-be-named Improvised Musical with former Music Director Trey Stone. This event will take place at the Black Box Improv Theater located in downtown Dayton on Third Street. As an additional note, this improvised show is one of Dayton’s most popular shows. The musical is preceded with a comedic act by The Stakeout.

Audience interaction is what makes The Stakeout’s show unique, since the performance will be based on the audience’s ideas. Members of the audience will be asked about specific topics or even asked to give one-word suggestions. However, none of them will be asked to come up on stage, so they are still free to sit back and enjoy the show. After intermission, the Improvised Musical will take place.

There is a reason this show is an audience favorite: the entire musical lives up to its title. Every single act is made up on the spot. From the music to the lyrics to the plot of the hour-long play. Leading the show is Stone; he will work his magic on the crowd with his piano playing while the lyrics, plot of the musical and possible dance moves are made up by other improvisers.

Tickets are available at $12 a seat and the show begins at 9 p.m. Make sure to bring your own alcohol. Do not miss out on The Stakeout or the crowd-favorite Improvised Musical!
