Trust is a word that keeps coming up when the Improvmonauts sit down to talk about what they do. And, yes, the five frenetic members of Belleville’s homegrown improv comedy troupe do on occasion sit down.

“The five of us are also friends, and that helps,” says Matthew Sheahan, who along with Mihal Zada, Darren Moore, Alexandra Bell, and Nathan Mahaffy, make up the Improvmonauts. “You don’t have to be friends with the people you do comedy with, but you have to trust each other. If you don’t trust each other then you can’t do it. I feel that all of us trust each other enough that we can voice opinions or try something different…we’re going to try stuff together and figure that out together. I’ve always felt at home with these people.”
