Jive Turkey

Jive Turkey is a long form improv duo who create a world from a location or word. From that the duo explores the character and characters of those who inhabit this world. In the process, we touch into the reality that these characters live in, and get to see the life through that sense. More so, these two improvisors are right there with the audience finding out the humanity of the discovered world.
