About Countdown Improv Festival 2018
We’re very excited to bring Countdown Improv Festival, formerly known at the 321 Improv Festival, back to Tampa for our second year on August 16-18, 2018. It is the only festival of its kind, devoted exclusively to showcasing the best improv trios, duos, and solo acts from around the country.
This festival is a production of Countdown Theater in New York City and the duo behind it, From Justin to Kelly (Justin Peters and Kelly Buttermore). We’ve taught and performed at theaters and festivals all across the country, hosted and attended summits, and consulted with theater owners, troupes and improvisers about building vibrant local improv scenes with a strong community foundation. We’re excited to showcase our knowledge and expertise, and share our passion for small group improv in particular, bringing more improv to Tampa Bay and beyond.
