SO Nefarious!
by Killiam on 1/30/12Comedy Sportz Chicago - ChicagoOctavarius is an upcoming improv group in Chicago with enough talent not only as an improvisational comedy troupe, but also as musicians, sketch comedy writers and performers, and overall skilled entertainers. With all of the different sub-projects (two of the members have a musical comedy group, and their new mass media project "I Made America" seems to be taking Chicago by storm), you would think it'd be hard for this group of 20 somethings to put on a quality improv show each and every Sunday they are billed. However, Octavarius surely knows how to appeal to any demographic and incorporate the audience well, making it feel like you truly are part of the show. Of the different shows I've seen, there are new themes every week (ranging from Disney Princess shows to a full blown 3 part Die Hard Christmas special), and the dedication to each theme despite access to much of a set piece or costume selection is well worth the price of admission (which is also 30% off if you yourself participate in the theme!) Overall, this is a great up-and-coming improv group with more potential than you can shake a made up stick at. A must-see!!!!
