About this Event

Friendships come in all shapes and sizes; you'll see three incredible ensembles take the stage at The Lou Costello Room above Zissimos bar to make you laugh!

Hippie and Frenchie are a duo from Lancaster, PA who explores the interconnected moments we have throughout life - pairs that weave in and out of our personal stories!

is a legend of the Baltimore indie improv scene. They start their show off with a personal monologue inspired by the audience and fly off the handle from there. There are lots of talking animals and stories that usually end in demise. Some friend groups are weird. Mouth Stuff makes those friend groups look standard.

Finally, Heather with Strangers endeavors to make a new friend out of you. Improv expert Heather Moyer works with an audience member who's never done improv - they make you look like a hero!

Doors will open at 6:45 pm, show starts at 7 pm. Free and paid street parking is available throughout the area.

Fantastic drinks available all night!

What is an improv show, exactly?

Improv is live theater created spontaneously by the performers with the inspiration of the audience. Unless noted otherwise, it’s a comedy show, made even more exciting, intriguing, and hilarious by the fact that none of it is pre-scripted! At an improv show you’ll see a wide range of creative and fascinating humans perform a highwire act by making comedy out of thin air! It can take many forms, including short competitive games, slice of life scenes, and full length sitcom or movie style performances!

A Highwire Improv show is truly a once in a lifetime performance, never done before and never to be done again!
