There has been lots of activity on our Improv Everywhere Global site the past few weeks. The Mexico City group Desordinarios staged a mission called “Train Rain.” Around twenty agents rode Mexico City’s metro wearing rain gear and holding umbrellas.
Other recent missions:
**Boston SOS held a protest to protest protesting.
**Plan B in Minnesota staged their version of our old Ted’s Birthday mission.
**Suddenly Midwest in Kansas City staged their version of The Moebius.
**Scene Diego put a giant button in a park labeled “Do Not Push.” The planted agents began to dance whenever the button was pushed.
**The DC Defenestrators have been busy down in our nation’s capital. They staged a concert on the mall using rock band instruments and created a fake celebrity for a day.
**Improv Jakarta had their first mission over in Indonesia, causing random folks to look up into the sky.
**A couple of Improv Everywhere agents from New York are traveling to Manchester, England next week to assist with an Improv Manchester mission at the Futuresonic conference. The event will be at 9 AM on Thursday, May 1. Here is the facebook invite.
Wow, congrats everyone on all the successful missions!
These are fun to hear about :)
Just a quick typo comment: The past tense of “to ride” is “rode,” not “road.”
congrat’s indeed.
It’s amazing what kind of humongous movements you’ve started, Todd.
I LOVE Law & Order:SVU and in the recent episode with Robin Williams in it, they re-enacted the “Frozen Grand Central Station” mission. I was surprised the writers would put it in. Improv literally is EVERYWHERE.

Great ideas. We saw Charlie on Channel 7’s ‘Sunrise’ this morning. He said that you have staged a ‘No Pants’ on Adelaide public transport. Nothing mentioned about this in local media. When, where and how did the ‘No Pants’ take place? If it has not been staged, Adelaide trams in the centre of the city at rush hour (minute!) would be perfect as there is an ongoing debate about over-crowded trams and over-heated commuters. The SA Transport Minister has even suggested that some commuters have fainted because they have dressed too warmly!!! Keep up the good work.
Glad to see Mexico is into these fun activities too.
826michigan also did a protest to protest protesting!
