Synopsis: A high-stakes, deadly improv show that will be performed by the top 16 people who have survived a game of game of Assassins! This action-packed show takes the classic game Assassins, mostly played by high school seniors running around in the suburbs, and makes it an exciting comedy competition played by New York’s best improv comedians. Over 60 comedians will be eliminated one by one until they fight on Monday, December 15th for a chance to win the game!
You won’t see classics like the Harold here— The Assignment gets expert improvisers to try insane shows like The Flashlight (a show lit only by flashlights), The Group Chat (a show with a real-time group chat projected on stage), or Gays Vs. Italians (self-explanatory).
