Babushka! is a two-man long-form improv show that has been a summertime favorite at Buffalo Infringement Festival since 2010. With over 50 years of improv comedy experience combined, Todd Benzin & Don Gervasi create an entirely improvised one-hour play based on a single audience suggestion, playing all the characters themselves, on-the-spot.
The Acting Company
The majority of our productions may contain sensitive material and challenging themes addressing complex societal issues. We believe that encountering these elements without prior warning preserves the full impact of the theatrical experience.
Our decision aligns with the philosophy that theatre should maintain its ability to surprise, challenge, and evoke genuine emotional responses. We feel that informing our audience about these aspects in advance may inadvertently diminish the impact and emotional resonance of the performances.
However, we also recognize the importance of fostering an inclusive and aware environment and respect the diverse experiences and sensitivities of our patrons while understanding that what may be triggering for one person may not be for another. If you have specific concerns, we encourage you to contact our box office for specific details on a performance.
We appreciate your understanding and support as we continue to create powerful, unfiltered theatrical experiences that respect the autonomy of our audience's experience and embrace the transformative power of theatre.
