Michelle Ostrelich Center Stage: Improv Comedy Benefit with NY State Senate’s Rising Star

Improv Comedy Benefit with NY State Senate’s Rising Star

The race for the Senate has never been so purposefully funny!

Get to know your local candidate for Senate with a smile, as Michelle is the guest of honor at a special improv comedy show where she inspires what you see on stage. 

The Mop & Bucket Company will provide the laughs as attendees enjoy food and drink from The Mopco Improv Theatre cafe, and will have a chance to meet and greet with members of the community and this rising star and of the Senate...and stage! 

Ticket proceeds go to the Michelle Ostrelich campaign, so join Michelle and Mopco for this unique event and help get her "in the room where it happens."  

FAQs

Will I get picked on by the comedians?

Absolutely not. Improv is about getting inspiration from the audience to help us invent scenes and songs on the spot. We celebrate your contribution to the show because you are part of it. Any volunteers we ask to join us onstage we GUARANTEE will be 110% cooler than they were when they were in their seat.

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?

There are no minimum age requirements for attendees. Typically shows are within a PG-13 rating. Our performances are improvised so the content is largely determined by the audience and the suggestions you give. We don't avoid "blue" humor but we try to be a little more creative with off-color suggestions than the obvious.  

Do you have a late policy for seating?

Yes. Our shows begin promptly. If a performance is sold out, unused tickets will be released to the waitlist beginning at five minutes to curtain. Please arrive early so that your ticket is not re-sold. There are no refunds within 24 hours of show time. Exchanges for a comparable performance can only be made up to two hours prior to a given performance.

What are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event?

Street parking is available on Union and N Jay street by our Theatre. Parking is available in the lot behind Perecca's as well as other public lots within a short walk of the theatre. The lot directly across from us is reserved for the Rossi & Ditorro Funeral Home NOT AVAILABLE for parking. DO NOT park in the lot by JoJo’s Auto Service or you will be towed. Find out more and see a detailed map of parking options available around us here.  

How can I contact the organizer with any questions?
