Centre<\/a> on Granville Island, it is a fun place to have a date.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, we went to the Friday 10pm Vancouver TheatreSports\u00c2\u00a0League show and it was hilarious.\u00c2\u00a0 For those of you who have not been to VTSL\u00c2\u00a0(or not been for a while), they do improv comedy, which means the performers have no script.\u00c2\u00a0 They rely upon suggestions from the audience to give them an idea and they must build a scene around it.\u00c2\u00a0 We go a lot and always find the shows fun and entertaining.\u00c2\u00a0 As a warning, the later the show, the looser the players get.\u00c2\u00a0 If you are more conservative, you may want to stick with the earlier shows.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This was another relatively cheap date night as the cost for two tickets totalled $40.\u00c2\u00a0 We each had one drink and that was about $15\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6.so a super fun night for under $60.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you want to expand your date night, the location gives you tons of options.\u00c2\u00a0 Now that they are fully licenced, VTSL has a cool bar area where you can sip a drink and look out over the yachts anchored in False Creek either before or after the show.\u00c2\u00a0 Prior to that you can grab a snack or dinner at any of the great restaurants on Granville Island like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vancouverdine.com\/theSandbar0experience.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">Sandbar<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bridgesrestaurant.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bridges<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.granvilleisland.com\/directory\/cats-social-house\" target=\"_blank\">Cats Social\u00c2\u00a0House <\/a>etc.\u00c2\u00a0 After the show, you can wander the boardwalk around the outer edge of the Island and look at the incredible views.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Get information on shows, ticket prices, cast lists and schedules at:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ www.vtsl.com\"
