Dumbshow & Noise is the inaugural launch of an established, professional unscripted theatre dream team. This group of friends met as colleagues in LA and, after world tours, Broadway runs and stints on TV and Movies, the opportunity has now arrived for this troupe of form.

The fact that it is happening in Orlando, Fl., a place that means something to each of them, makes this reunion even sweeter.

Our vision is to become one of the premiere unscripted theater troupes in the country. We believe that the only way to achieve this is through our continued, diligent pursuit to improve our process and craft, inviting diversity of talent, mentoring and nuturing the next generation of unscripted artists and continuing to listen and evolve as a troupe.

We are looking for partners who share in elevating improv as an art form and working together to establish unscripted theatre as valued night out.

We believe through the spirit of curiosity, empathy, fun and daring we can build audiences and create an excitement for the classics.

We believe that great stories connect us and make the world a better place.

We believe that everyone has a right for their story to be heard.

& We believe the journey should be fun!

A final message of the road behind so we can see the road ahead…

This is the first time this exciting group of established actors has come together as a company. They have each known one another for over 2 decades and in that time, performed hundreds of shows together. They have individually, added to the growing art of unscripted theatre.

For example, Kelly has been a long-time member of Impro Theatre in LA and Cory guested with them for over 2 decades, he joined as a full-time company member several years ago. Both helped to grow the company’s National reputation as one of the leading theatre groups in America.

.American Theatre Magazine wrote :

“Impro’s work has taught me to demand more from the theatre, and from the culture in which it is embedded. The people who would entertain us have got to reward our faith. Trusting Impro to invent a long, inspiriting story has become one of my life’s most reliable enjoyments.”

- Jason Rohrer - Theatre and Film Critic

Our company’s vision is to grow, one show at a time, one relationship at a time.

We look forward to the stories that come from OUR working together.

Come, let our journey begin…
