Improvised Arabian Nights

Witness the magic ignite as Scheherazade weaves unforeseen tales to enthrall King Shahrayar! Improvised Arabian Nights whisks you away on a spellbinding journey, where brand new chapters unfold in this legendary saga. Our talented improvisers draw inspiration from the timeless themes of the Arabian Nights, crafting enchanting narratives brimming with mystical magic, unpredictable mayhem, cunning thieves, valiant heroes, powerful djinns, and boundless love that conquers all.

At BATS Improv, one of our core values is respect for our audience. We understand that some people hesitate to sit up front because they’re worried about being "picked on." That’s not our style.

While we may invite audience members to join us on stage, it’s always your choice—and if you do, we’ll treat you with the same respect and playfulness that we bring to the entire show. No embarrassment, no mean-spirited jokes—just a fun, welcoming experience for everyone.

So sit where you like, relax, and enjoy the show!

Please Note: Improv can be unpredictable!
