The Brooklyn Comedy Collective premiered their new hour-long musical, "Secret's Out," in Williamsburg, showcasing an entirely improvised performance based on audience-submitted secrets. Directed by Katy Berry and featuring music by Ammon Taylor, the nine-member cast engaged the audience in a humorous exploration of vulnerability. The performance emphasized the value of laughter and self-acceptance through songs and dance. As a culmination of their improv class, the cast's ability to craft comedy on the spot brought entertainment and connection, revealing that humor often lies within our darkest secrets.
"We thought it was so juicy," said Mayfield, co-producer of the performance, on the idea of using secrets in the improv musical format. "Being able to have the audience be a part of that little chain of vulnerability is just really exciting."
The musical - billed as "Secret's Out" - highlighted the importance of laughing at one's faults and mistakes. The evening's jokes, gags, and blunders became cornerstones for encouraging the audience to not take themselves too seriously.
