We went to Mopco Improv Theatre TWICE in December. The first was for a "typical" show ... this…read moretheme was "Spontaneous Broadway". We went with another couple. The improv actors were funny and creative. The story lines were interesting... even more so because they were based on audience suggestions. Several of the improv artists were strong singers which made certain songs especially entertaining. The second time we went was for the New Year's Eve Family show at 7 pm. We took our 12 year old granddaughter. Good family fun with lots of laughs. Nice job to all. Prices are affordable. The cookies from the snack "bar" were excellent and a nice treat to accompany the show.

I had read from previous posts that the theater had been moved to Jeanne Jugan Lane in Latham, NY part of the Ashfield Apartments and was very surprised at how very nice the place was. It is a small maybe 100 seats or so, elevated comfortable cushioned modern theater with no obstructed views. There was also an entrance area that sold wine, beer, coffee and cake before the show and at intermission. The show lasted about 1hr 15 min with a 15 minute intermission. I personally thought it was an enjoyable evening for a small town theater.

As a plus sized woman, I find the seats to be very roomy and comfortable. The seats were very cushy and supportive and there was a ton of leg room. I'll go to more shows based on this alone. I think my issue is comparing this theatre to Proctors, which is a very different vibe. The Palace offers more lively shows with less of a strict seating policy. People are often up and down in their seats, there is often a lot of chatter in the crowd; and I think this threw me off my first visit, as I am used to being quiet and still in my seat until intermission. Parking is pretty easy with multiple options locally, as well as abundant street parking. Concessions were very pricy. The bathrooms are in the basement if you are on the main level, so that's a bit of a pain. I won't hesitate to book another show here!
