Hellcat + The Hypothesis + iMusical

It’s the most wonderful (and wonderfully unpredictable) time of the year! From heartwarming family traditions to hilariously unexpected twists, there’s something for everyone at WIT in A Very Improv Holiday!

WIT is DC’s top spot for hilarious improv comedy. Our shows are surprising, smart, and totally unscripted, and feature the funniest improvisers in the region.

Inspired by a simple suggestion from the audience, each show is an unpredictable delight. In fact, most first-time audience members find it hard to believe that what they’re seeing is entirely made up on the spot. (It is!)

The Lineup

Hellcat
Hellcat are the bad girls of improv (patent pending). We’ll make you laugh and we’ll make you feel. We’ll weave together characters you identify with and root for, as well as kooky weirdos you hope you’ll never, ever have to meet in real life. One thing is for sure: don’t mess with the Hellcat.
Cast: Aubrey Peterson, Clare Helligan, Devin Hiett, Kaelan Sullivan, Krystal Ali, Liz Hoke, Lori Pitts, Melissa Gedney, Sarah Baldwin, Simonica Mendes, Steph Lily

The Hypothesis Presents: The Science of Santa
The Hypothesis dashes into the holiday season by exploring the science behind Santa, his reindeer, his sleigh, time travel, and all things holiday!
Cast: Bethany Stokes, Ceci De Robertis, Christina Dabney, Goli Samimi, Gwendolyn Bogard, Henry Ring, Jordana Mishory, Nick Tschernia, Nina Hsu, Rose Buchbinder, Tom Di Liberto

iMusical
iMusical joins the unpredictable playfulness of comedic improvisation with the emotional power of musical theater. A cast of singer-improvisers instantly creates a compelling new show with each performance, made up of completely improvised scenes, lyrics and music, all inspired by a single audience suggestion.
Cast: Anna Claire Walker, Arie Rich, Cassie Barnum, David Shadburn, Fred Gilbert, Geoff Withuhjee, Katie O’Donnell, Mark Chalfant, Simone Webster, Stanley Seiden, Stephanie Rae. Accompanists: Amy Broadbent, Kristin Stowell
