This weekend on public radio stations across America, the wonderful This American Life will be re-running their program which features the nearly-as-wonderful Improv Everywhere.
IE’s motto is “We Cause Scenes.” They organize events which are a cross between theater, comedy, and situationism… like installing a bathroom attendant in a McDonalds, faking a rooftop U2 concert, or offering boat tours of a public fountain.
The show airs this weekend on your local station, but if you’re impatient, you can listen to the show now.
Or, you can listen to IE founder Charlie Todd on The Sound of Young America:

And yes, he was on our show first. EAT THAT IRA!
