Sic Hoc Verum Est (If This Is True . . . ) + Fall in Love with Uncle Gorgeous + LIZARD GIRL: Book Club

WIT's improv comedians turn an audience suggestion into a never-before-seen comedy show!

The Line-up

Sic Hoc Verum Est (If This Is True . . . ) 
Sic Hoc takes a dispute an audience member is experiencing and fights it out in a court of law. If we have bad facts, we’ll argue the law. If we have bad law, we’ll argue the facts. Think of Judge Judy, but with two actual lawyers representing the two sides of the dispute and a judge who’s not in it for the ratings.
Cast: Jason Fleigel, Jennifer Hyman, Aimee Lee Savage

Fall in Love with Uncle Gorgeous
Join Uncle Gorgeous on a heartwarming journey through the whimsical world of real-life rom-com moments! We’ll turn to you, our beloved audience, to share a moment from your life that could have been straight out of a romantic comedy. Picture it: the meet-cute, the awkward dance of attraction, or the serendipitous encounter that could rival any Hollywood script. Through a brief interview, we’ll capture the essence of these enchanting tales. Then, buckle up for a 25-minute rollercoaster ride of laughter, love, and unexpected twists as we bring these scenes to life. Our performers will become your favorite fun uncles, weaving together an unscripted comedy set filled with nostalgia, romance, and genuine joy. Get ready to revel in the timeless hilarity of love, laughter, and the delightful chaos of life’s romantic misadventures!
Cast: Samiyyah Ali, Jessie Cali, Tom Di Liberto, Madeline Dozier, Mikail Faalasli, Kristina Martinez, Ryan McCloskey, Jordana Mishory, Jamal Newman, Kelsey Peters

LIZARD GIRL: Book Club
You get to make up an imaginary book title, it’s our job to bring it to life! The lines between life and literature blur as we delve into the interpersonal dramas that are requisite for any good book club and discuss our favorite moments from a book we have never read!
Cast: Mikey Blunschi, David Brescia-Weiler, Patrick Fleury, Jessica Norman, Krystal Ramseur, Bryce Slinger, Jared Smith
