WIT's unpredictable improv comedians turn an audience suggestion into a never-before-seen comedy show.
Baggage Claim is an all Black indie troupe here to unpack your emotional baggage in front of a live audience. Tell us about a time someone wronged you, and we will break it down scene by scene until all you can do is laugh about it. Cast: Samiyyah Ali, Precious Jenkins, Namakau Ombaba, Clyde Thompson, Eddison Wilkinson
Formed in May 2016, LIZARD GIRL is a troupe tracing its roots back to the golden age of Obama-era Harold teams at WIT. Now performing as an ensemble, the group strives to create sharp comedic shows by inviting you into their quirky world. LIZARD GIRL asks the audience for a location and from there invites you to get to know the characters in this location by building a backstory for these characters and this world through various flashbacks. Cast: Mikey Blunschi, Patrick Fleury, Shealy Molpus, Jessica Norman, Krystal Ramseur, Bryce Slinger, Jared Smith
iMusical joins the unpredictability of comedic improvisation with the fun of musical theater! A cast of singer-improvisers instantly creates an entirely new musical show on the fly, complete with improvised scenes, songs, and characters, all inspired by a single audience suggestion.
