Madeline + ’Twas: An Improvised Xmas Eve Adventure

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

Madeline
You know those conversations that pop up around the holidays that start out normal and somehow end with everyone oversharing, making terrible decisions, and revealing a little too much? That’s the kind of beautiful disaster Madeline loves to create, building absurdly specific characters and letting their lives spiral somewhere hilarious, heartfelt, and just a little inappropriate.
Cast: Adam Levine, Amanda Learman, Dan O’Neil, Jason Walther, Kevin Eggleston, Lauren Emily, Macey Schiff, Matt Strote, Meghan Faulkner, Morgan Burris, Nick Martinez, Rose Buchbinder, Ryan McClure
