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
Uncle Gorgeous
Our inspiration comes from the joyful moments and real-life connections our audience brings with them. We seek inspiration from a personal story about a family member (related and/or chosen) and create a premise-based montage inspired by that story.
Cast: Allison Yolo, Anna Burke, Catherine Castillo, Chels Shorte, Christina Dabney, Jordana Mishory, Kelsey Peters, Kristina Martinez, Michael Williamson, Mikail Faalasli, Rae Lang, Richie Khanh, Ryan McCloskey, 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
