Apollo 12
Famed improvisor Keith Johnstone once observed that when a troupe is afraid to grow, its best performers will drift away. In one instance the entire troupe drifted at once. Founded in 1998 as part of The ComedySportz franchise, the group grew in experience and knowledge to the point that the limitations of the format were no longer challenging or satisfying. The group left the league in 2002 to form a group unlimited in their artistic choices.
