🎭 FEATURED FESTIVAL PERFORMERS: RIOT IMPROV ALL-STARS
The Riot Comedy Festival isn’t just stand-up. It’s also bringing top-tier improv comedy to Houston as part of the 2026 Riot Comedy Festival. This special improv showcase features some of the sharpest, fastest, and funniest performers working today, delivering fully improvised scenes, games, and chaos based entirely on audience suggestions. No scripts. No safety net. Just elite comedic instincts and big laughs.
These performers come from strong club and theater backgrounds and regularly perform at comedy venues, festivals, and colleges across the country. If you like smart, high-energy comedy that’s different every single time, this is a must-see part of the festival.
