Medium: 

I think because it’s a fun concept, the audience that's already familiar with the story world, would like to feel like they are apart of it.

Platform: 

An improv show would ideally need a stage to perform on. They could do it on the floor, but seeing that this is a very popular story, a stage seems more appropriate.

Story Synopsis:

Gordon is an ancient spirit beast who takes over evil people. He’s been doing this for

centuries: causing mayhem and destruction and causing countless deaths. Lately, he’s been

feeling like he’s tired of this life. He’s not getting any joy from this life anymore. He wants

people to see him as a good guy and not the one that blows up cities and towns.

Gordon finds out about a secret club where like minded evil spirit could go and discuss

these feelings of redemption snd the journey to crossing over to the good side: SBA or also

known as Spirit Beast Anonymous.

We see Gordon go into his first meeting, where the group is a motley crew of ugly and

distorted looking spirit beasts, each one meaner than the next. There’s Bob, he is the founder of

SBA and has successfully transformed into a good spirit beast and wants to help others leave

their life of sin and get a new purpose.

In the show, we listen to everyone's back story and why they want to become good.

Random audience members will be selected to come on stage as tools for Bob to show what to

do and not do to humans to be good.
