			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>True!mprov is a group that explores life and our relationship with God through improvisational theater.</p>
<p><em>What? </em>you might be thinking, <em>I thought improv was comedy!  How can you have a comedy show that talks about God?  </em>  First of all, there&#8217;s nothing that says God doesn&#8217;t laugh along with us when we&#8217;re having fun.    After all, He invented humor, so I&#8217;m confident He likes a funny joke too.  Second, although most people associate improv theater and comedy, it also can have a more serious note.  In fact, life itself is all about improvisation.  Imagine that you get a phone call from a friend &#8211; your entire conversation is formed at that moment &#8211; you didn&#8217;t rehearse what you were going to say ahead of time.</p>
<p>At True!mprov performances, we laugh a lot, and have some of the serious stuff too (but not <em>too</em> serious &#8211; it&#8217;s supposed to be fun).  Our shows are usually geared around a theme &#8211; some of them have been Strength, Love, Sacrifice, and Hope &#8211; but we really don&#8217;t know what will happen until the moment, so sometimes it&#8217;s not obvious how the theme plays into the performance.</p>
