Tiny Group Festival!

The Roving Imp Tiny Group Festival only received a tiny mention from me recently, but has also been carried in The Kansas City Star:
BonnerSprings.com / NYC, Denver improv groups to perform at festival
Roving Imp Theater and Coffee House owner John Robison wants to shine the spotlight on improvisational comedy groups that don’t normally get a lot of festival love.”
My good friend David Rushing has already began to promote the event on his site:
David Prov: The Roving Imp Tiny Group Fest
These are the shows:
“Thursday, Feb. 10, 7pm: New Group Night!
