Though Howie Mandel has been in show business for more than 30 years, his celebrity status hasn't faded. In fact, it's going stronger than ever. He's the Emmy-nominated host of Deal or No Deal, a judge on America's Got Talent, author of bestselling memoir Here's the Deal: Don't Touch Me and host of FOX's new hidden-camera flash-mob show Mobbed. It's a little-known fact that Mandel started his career on a dare, when he took the stage at an open mic night and was immediately discovered by a TV producer, which led to a series of stand-up appearances followed by six years as a regular cast member on St. Elsewhere. Mandel also had an Emmy-nominated animated children's series, Bobby's World, which ran for eight seasons on FOX. He was a go-to fill-in host for Regis on Live with Regis and Kelly, and he can also be seen regularly doing hidden camera bits on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Learn More

Mostly low-end cleverness, often didn't use audience-submitted topics very well, insultingly terrible fake accents. Overall pretty amateurish, though it seemed funny to the twenty something crowd that was at the theater's party just prior (perhaps their friends?). Use of video screen has potential - which was realized only a couple of times.Written on Jun 26 2009

Tilted Frame has a nice idea -- incorporating media into its improv. Its execution, however, lacked. I wanted to fall asleep in the theatre. It started off with a bang that quickly sizzled, then snoozed. It went far too long. I was considering shooting myself by the time they were done performing.Written on Jul 17 2009
The highlight of the evening was Street Light People, TF's guest for the night. While its narrative was a bit twisted and the adherence to improv principles was flexible, the show was a lot of fun with a lot of humor and a lot of energy. I enjoyed it and would see them again.
