YOU BETTER CALL TYRONE + Madeline + Nox!

Say goodbye to the heat, the grind, and the headlines. Say hello to a night of laughter with WIT.

YOU BETTER CALL TYRONE

You Better Call Tyrone are the 2026 FIST champions — “The Tyrone” — a long-form style format where every scene is punctuated by a spontaneous, a cappella musical improv interlude, keeping the energy unpredictable and the laughs coming fast. This four-person all-Black ensemble bring a rare blend of sharp improv instincts, big characters, and genuine musical chops that had audiences singing along.

Cast: Lee Bennett III, Eva Lewis, Stephanie Rae, and Arie Rich 

Madeline

Whether you’re looking for naughty, nice, or niche, you’ll be spellbound by Madeline’s shows—which have been called “fun,” “hilarious,” “a tad raunchy for my taste,” and “completely inappropriate for people who aren’t fun.”

Madeline shows are known to (make you):

FEEL randy on the outside and warm on the inside.

REMIND you of the funniest, most successful third date you’ve ever had.

SAY “I love myself. Now let’s go dance.”

Cast: Adam Levine, Dan O’Neil, Danielle Steger, Kevin Eggleston, Lauren Emily, Macey Schiff, Matt Strote, Nick Martinez, Ryan McClure

Nox!

Nox! holds a funhouse 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 longform improv troupe in D.C. Oh, and they’re hilarious.

Cast: Aaron Mosby, Arie Rich, Aubrey Peterson, Bethany Stokes, Chris Orvin, Chris Ulrich, Eli Okun, Geoff Withuhjee, John Heiser, Matt Winterhalter, Tandra Turner
