Pleased to announce Allen The Great McRae as the July 2014 IB Awesome Recipient! Allen has dedicated himself to elevating the level of sketch comedy at ImprovBoston since 2007. He began at IB as a member of one of the theaters first resident sketch teams, The Latchkey Kids. From his conceptual debut in 2009 with the offbeat UHF show he co-produced and his work with sketch teams Duct Tape Revolution, World of Hurt, and The Allen McRae Show, to the showcase shows The Best of Boston Sketch (co-producer) and Comedy, America! (director), Allen has been a tireless proponent of quality written comedy. As a member of the IBCS faculty, hes helping to shape the next generation of sketch writers. In addition to creating, writing, producing and teaching Allen has also unified the sketch community through building bridges with representatives from sketch teams and shows while working with Artistic Director Mike Descoteaux to create a comprehensive sketch structure at the theater. He looks to push the boundaries and possibilities of sketch with his new group, World of Hurt.

ImprovBoston continues to embrace sketch as a comedic force and Allen is at the forefront of the movement, never flagging in his determination to make Boston an amazing city for sketch.
