They did this stunt in NYC not to long ago.

It's not really a demonstration it's more of a look and see what we do. I do
not think they have an agenda.

Here is a blurb from there site.

Why do you do this?

Improv Everywhere is, at its core, about having fun. We're big believers in
"organized fun". Our missions are a fun source of entertainment for the
participants, those who happen to see us live, and those who read this
website. We get satisfaction from coming up with an awesome idea and making
it come to life. In the process we bring excitement to otherwise unexciting
locales and give strangers a story they can tell for the rest of their
lives. We're out to prove that a prank doesn't have to involve humiliation
or embarrassment; it can simply be about making someone laugh, smile, or
stop to notice the world around them.

Disclaimer: I'm not expressing an opinion on the demonstrations. I am
posting solely to remind the list of the scanning opportunities.

There was something at Union Station on Tuesday evening at 5:30 p.m.
People froze in place for five minutes. Wednesday morning, 8 a.m., there
will be a protest at the IRS. That ought to mess up traffic. Expect MPD
and FPS to be there.

I expect most communications will be by way of FRS radios.
