Laughter was plentiful as the Pella High School improv groups kicked off a series of variety shows last night in the auditorium.

Improv students “played” a variety of improvisation games for an audience in the style of “Whose Line is it Anyway?”

Two more performances are set with different improv teams competing each evening both tonight and Saturday at 7 p.m. Tickets cost $5 at the door, with proceeds benefitting Pella High School Speech Programs.
