The so-called improvised comedy show, Whose Live Anyway? (to be clear, we’re not suggesting it isn’t improvised— that’s obvious—we’re just wondering whether it’s legitimately called comedy) that was scheduled for the Terrace Theater this Friday … has been canceled.

The show was to be a spin on the “Whose Line Is It, Anyway?” television program, which on one hand was pure torture and on the other banished Drew Carey to his rightful place as a game-show host. No reason has been given for the cancellation, although we can hope it had something to do with a violation of Long Beach’s community standards – or even better, poor ticket sales.

Speaking of that, refunds on already-purchased tickets are available at the original point of purchase.

 “On behalf of Jam Theatricals, SMG, and the Long Beach Performing Arts Center, we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused,” said Dan Spellens, Director of Theaters & Entertainment for the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center in a press release.

No need to apologize, Dan. Really. We ought to be thanking you.
