Improv Everywhere
United States
Приєднався 14 кві 2006
Improv Everywhere is comedian and director Charlie Todd‘s decades-long project to bring extraordinary moments of surprise and delight to ordinary places. Based in New York City but producing projects around the world, Improv Everywhere pioneered large-scale surprise public performances, long before anyone had heard of the term “flash mob.”
Early adopters of UA-cam, Improv Everywhere was one of the first creators on the platform in 2006 and defined an entire genre of comedy for the Internet age. To date the channel has half a billion views. With viral hits like the legendary Frozen Grand Central and the absurdly silly No Pants Subway Ride, Improv Everywhere has created iconic projects that have entered the zeitgeist and been replicated in dozens of countries around the globe.
Over the past 20+ years, Improv Everywhere has staged hundreds of projects in public places involving tens of thousands of undercover performers, all with the goal of making random strangers laugh and smile.

We Surprised Temp Workers with an Epic Office Party
We surprised real temp workers with the most epic office party ever.
Full Story: improveverywhere.com/2024/01/16/epic-office-party-surprise/
We built a fake room in the middle of our production studio in New York. From the inside, it looked like a boring conference room, but we secretly rigged it with hidden cameras and special effects. We hired real temp workers to come in for a day's worth of work. They had no idea that everyone else in the office was an actor or what was about to go down.

For a minute I felt old when I realised how long it's been since I saw it first time, but then I've felt young again cause I giggled as hard as back in the day.
Please do this again, I need the spray down while waiting for M 😩
