L & N 
Improv Festival

The L&N Improv Festival takes its name from the legendary track of railroad that ran between Louisville and Nashville for over a century, but this weekend the name will be repurposed for a good reason. This one night of improv shows will highlight the best improv troupes in both the Louisville and Nashville theater scenes. The festival will feature the Louisville Improvisors, Lung Farm (Louisville) members of Music City Improv (Nashville), LOL Nashville (Nashville) and the Narcotic Farmers (Louisville and Nashville). There will be an early and late show, each of which will be truly unique experiences and wholly different performances (good reason to stick around for both) because there are only two rules in improv: no two shows are ever the same, and make it funny.
