Improv Everywhere strike again with grocery store musical
27 October 09

Improv Everywhere, the comedic performance art group based in New York City, carried out their latest stunt in a grocery store in New York this month.

The group got six undercover actors to burst into song in a grocery store in Queens. Three minutes and lots of silly choreography later, they returned to their roles as shoppers and stock boys. The mission was filmed with hidden cameras. Click on here to view it.

Improv Everywhere has organized and carried out over 85 missions, from synchronized swimming in a park fountain, to repeating a five-minute sequence of events in a Starbucks coffee shop over and over again for an hour, to having a trousser-less day on the sub way in New York.

All the missions share a certain modus operandi: Members ("agents") play their roles entirely straight, not breaking character or betraying that they are acting.
