    The Village Theatre

    Come along with these brash guys and gals from the ATL as they take you on a Improvised adventure known as the "Tag-Out Journey." A one word suggestion is all it takes and these actors will use there improv powers and BBQ Sauce to deliver outlandish characters and an ever expanding storyline.

    Fraidy Cat

    Fraidy Cat: A Solo Show is a classy piece of art that has been performed on comedy stages from New York to Los Angeles and for the right price it can be performed in your living room. ‘Fraidy Cat has the heart of a one woman show with the pace of a comedy hour. It’s as vulnerable and revealing as it is silly and irreverent. The writing has been called “astute,” the acting has been called “exceptional,” and the creator has been called everything from “Miss O’Neill” to “Mr. Tumnus.” Bring the whole family (except for the kids and your judgmental cousin, Rick)!

    Big Dicktionary

    Big Dicktionary is a two-person, long-form improvisational comedy team composed of Timmy Finch and John Brennan. The two share the stage and break many of the "rules" to entertain. Neither one is safe from the other as they keep the show tight and fast even as they call out each other's foibles. Oh yeah, they use a very big dictionary in the show.

    Rockola

    Rockola is a series of improvised scenes built on the songs that you, the audience choose at the beginning of a show. The improvisers (Chris Blair, Megan Leahy, and Travis Sharp) will fill up the ol' juke box with anything your heart and ears desire, from AC/DC to Taylor Swift...and then the fun begins. Scenes can be inspired by anything from lyrics to dance movements. Essentially, Rockola is one big improvised mixtape - and you're the recipient.  Bring your ipod or iphone to the show and maybe they will use your music.

    Phat Beethoven

    Phat Beethoven is four best friends who live in Chicago. They write through improvisation to blend their dark sensibility with their brotherly rapport, creating a show that is honest even at its most absurd. The group takes the classic one-act sketch revue and infuses it with character narrative, innovative transitions, and a genuine enjoyment of each other on and off stage.
