The Broken Bones + Madeline + Hellcat

Performers

We’ve all been hurt, perhaps by a hidden patch of ice, a sick collision while scoring the winning goal, or a very public breakup at your 28th birthday party. The Broken Bones will interview an audience member about an injury—be it physical, emotional, or other—and we will all heal together through comedy. The cast has some of DC’s funniest improvisers who have been featured by The Washington Post, NPR, and Comedy Central, as well as comedy festivals around the US and Europe. Cast: Darnell Eaton, Erick Acuña Pereda, Eva Lewis, Geoff Corey, Kelsey Peters, Kristiana Martinez, Neil Baron.

Madeline begins her performances with a tailored, interactive moment with you, the audience, and ascends to a higher place of laughter—complete with the manic-moxie of a first date, the flirtiness of a spontaneous 1:1 with your work crush, and the worthiness of a life filled with love. Whether you’re looking for naughty, nice, or niche, you’ll be spellbound by one of her shows—which have been called “fun,” “hilarious,” “a tad horny for my taste,” and “completely inappropriate for people who aren’t fun.” Cast: Adam Levine, Eddison Wilkinson, Lauren Emily, Liz Sanders, Macey Schiff, Matt Strote, Nick Martinez, Precious Jenkins, Robin Doody, Ryan McClure, Stacey Axler.

A Hellcat show is like a really strong Dirty Shirley: sweet at first, but sour and bitter underneath. We’re playful and fun, but also sharp and cutting, and we are equally committed to the absurd and the heartfelt — because we know that life is all things at once. When you leave a Hellcat show, you’ll ask questions like, “Do these women have rabies?” “Is 4th wave feminism finally here?” “Should I start a commune with all my best girlfriends?” Cast: Clare Mulligan, Jenna Hall, Justine Hipsky, Kaelan Sullivan Fleury, Krystal Ali, Liz Hoke, Lori Pitts, Melissa Gedney, Simone Webster, Steph Wilson, Macey Schiff.
