“Stale Milk & Sour Cookies” is more than a tradition for TLM. It marks the fourth anniversary of the founding of the group that has raised funds for disaster relief, medical research and other charitable causes.

The improv troupes takes inspiration from “Saturday Night Live,” “Upright Citizens Brigade,” “Whose Line Is It Anyway?,” “The State,” the writings of Dr. Seuss and Gene Autry as well as its own twisted comic stylings.

The show, which has mature content, will be at 7:30 p.m. in Roberts Learning Center’s Lincoln Auditorium on the University of Maine at Farmington campus. Suggested donation: $5. For more information, visit www.teachersloungemafiaimprov.com or call 578-0357.
