Pop Scholars
The Pop Scholars are an improvisational comedy troupe from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Well versed in short-form improv, Pop Scholars plagiarized a page from the Chicago scene in May 2009 and began performing long form improvisation, a lengthier set of scenes centered on one suggestion.
While normal improvised comedy comprises the majority of a Pop Scholars show, there are occasional forays into musical improvisation. Each show is fast paced, unique and a creation all its own.
