Get Tickets Now!Let DC’s funniest improvisers give you a break from reality with their smart, surprising, and totally unscripted comedy!
Shoes Off!
The Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander (AANHPI) umbrella covers a lot of rich and diverse cultures, but if there’s one thing everyone can agree on it’s this: Keep your shoes off at home! Shoes Off! is an indie troupe made up of all-AANHPI improvisers, who formed out of WIT’s community-led Affinity Group initiative in 2024, and love celebrating their diversity through the prism of improv comedy.
Cast: Aagosh Mathur, Chandra Char, Kunal Duggal, Peter Tzeng, Rohan Narayanan, Vasant Joseph, and Zhaokang Ong
LIZARD GIRL
One of WIT’s company ensembles, LIZARD GIRL has been a staple of the DC improv scene for almost a decade. She’s weird, wacky, and you never really know what you’re going to get because they love to subvert expectations. But one thing’s for sure: She’s LIZARD GIRL, and she’s going to make you laugh.
Cast: Bryce Slinger, David Brescia-Weiler, Jared Smith, Jessica Norman, Krystal Ali, Liz Sanders, Mikey Blunschi, and Patrick Fleury
Nox!
Nox! holds a fun house mirror up to today’s society. As one of the longest-running groups in the District, this WIT company ensemble is close-knit and thrives on high-energy, memorable characters and playing with both real and imagined worlds. Fueled by the mantra “get weird,” their aim is to be the most dynamic and versatile long-form improv troupe in DC. Oh, and they’re hilariously funny.
Cast: Aaron Mosby, Arie Rich, Aubrey Peterson, Bethany Stokes, Chris Orvin, Chris Ulrich, Eli Okun, Geoff Corey, John Heiser, Matt Winterhalter, Nina Hsu, and Tandra Turner
