Tonight's FORK Anniversary Show will serve up the result of four amazing years of travel, workshops and over 500 productions across the country. "This is just a huge culmination of everything we've been doing," says FORK player Jon Jon Lannen. "It's just a huge party to celebrate what a good year we've had."

Starting at 7 p.m. at Impulse Theater, 1634 18th Street, the show will kick off with the all-female Dishwater Blondes offering a short improv set, followed by the FORK team performing its dynamic-duo-style long-form improvisation. "We start off sitting at different sides of the stage and telling two different stories that begin to run parallel and eventually become so similar that we can end it on exactly the same line at exactly the same time," explains Lannen. "That line becomes our theme. We then jump into different scenes inspired by that theme and audience suggestions. We bring in characters that we've seen in our lives or just brand-new characters that inspire us that night. We just have a good time and roll with it."

Colorado hip-hop artist Black Prez will perform at an after-show party. Tickets for the entire evening are $10; for more information, go to http://forkimprov.webs.com.
