Improv Everywhere Asks Random New Yorkers To Lead a Parade That Follows Them Wherever They Go

Parade Leader Wanted

Random Parade Leader” is the latest mission by Improv Everywhere that asks random New Yorkers to lead a parade that follows them wherever they go. Both onlookers and the volunteer band leaders themselves seem surprised as a full marching band rounds a corner to play “Jingle Bells.”

For our latest mission, a woman in a marching band uniform stands on the sidewalk with a sign that reads “Parade Leader Wanted.” When a stranger agrees to help out, a huge parade led by a marching band emerges from around the corner and follows him wherever he goes. The band plays “Jingle Bells” and is followed by a cast of characters that includes two yetis, Frosty the Snowman, and two guys holding giant flags that read “Random Parade.”
