You can find ComedySportz events around the country, but now Anchorage has its own chapter of the improv experience. The premise is simple: two teams compete in improv games with a referee keeping things fair while the audience decides the score. The first event will be held on Friday, January 9 at Williwaw.

Rich Capitan has been doing improv in Anchorage for two decades and established the Anchorage chapter of ComedySportz. Along with bringing more family-friendly improv to the city, he plans on the group eventually providing classes.
