IMPROV YOUR LIFE

Sarah Lowe and Matt Donnelly are “Honeymooners!”  They return to The PIT tonight at 8pm!

Sarah Lowe (The Apple Sisters, Baldwins, Jersey Boys) and Matt Donnelly (Penn & Teller: Tell A Lie, Neutrino, Faculty) return to New York  for their first show in a dog’s age!

As “Honeymooners,” Sarah and Matt perform a 2-person improv set based on the classic Jackie Gleason/Audrey Meadows show followed by a second-half, All-Star jam comprising Old School and New School improvisers in a Tarot Lounge Set, where an improvised piece is created based on the comedic tarot card reading of an audience member.

The time has come!  The Nathan + Joe Show Presents: is tonight at 7pm!

The Nathan + Joe Show Presents: is a series of intricate and complicated improvisations with Nathan Phillips, Joe Schiappa and certain invited improvisationalists. Every show features a different never before seen structure invented to challenge the performers and the audience. The fact that Nathan + Joe are so f-cking awesome guarantees this is a must-see event.

Good morning!  Why not start gearing up for Jester’s Dead: Top Gun Shakesparody tonight at 9:30pm?

” …a production of borderline genius…” - phillyist.com “…the gimmick that keeps on giving…” - Philadelphia Inquirer

Top Gun. Shakespeare. Jester’s Dead re-imagines the classic 80s flick, Top Gun, in a theatrical parody packed with swordfights, songs, and text from every play in Shakespeare’s canon. In this adrenaline-fueled mashup, we’re going straight to the danger zone.

Directed by Justin Waldman and Tamara Fisch

Starring Chris Bolan, Dan Hartley, Rhett Henckel, Ed Hoopman, Ben Horner, Kathleen McElfresh, MacKenzie Meehan, Vayu O’Donnell and Stephen O’Reilly.
