Void Where Prohibited has been performing its hilarious “Whose Line” show in America even longer than Drew Carey. Founded in 1995 by an errant group of “The Second City” students, from which came the likes of Chris Farley, Bill Murray, Eddie Murphy and other awesome improvisors. Pat Caporuscio, cast member said,“We actually bring audience members on stage and they become a working part of the cast.” This side splitting, 2 hour show is entirely made up by suggestions AND audience members on stage. Another Cast member Kelly Rands was heard to say to an audience member,“ Don’t worry! If we talk long enough, we’ll say something funny!” And they did!! With over 200 games to rehearse, the group is now heavily in debt with many new cast members from the local area. We mean indebted to the many new cast members from the area that are part of the show! It is a PG rated, family friendly show for ages 12 to 112.Anyone older than 112 gets in FREE.
