The Movies:

Remember that first time you lost track of reality watching a show on the big, silver screen? That time you accidentally fell in love with Halle Berry? Anthony Mackie? Kathy Griffin?! The Movies do! Our troupe brings you a grab bag of emotional characters and invite you on a journey of learning how they all fit together. Join us on an improvised journey away from this reality into the hidden caves of the human heart, and back again. Sneak in a beer, put lunchables in your pants, or play it by the book and spend $60 on concessions… there’s no wrong way to enjoy The Movies.

CAST: Joe Freeman, Gretchen Glaeser, Addie Stevens, Anthony Brazeau, Liz Davenport, Kathryn Schmidt, Harrison Brooks

 

Women in STEM is an RVA based improv team made up of four raccoons in a trench coat doing improv about life, love, chaos, and probably not science. 👍

CAST: Katie Samuelson, Alex Luciano, Lou Ackerman, Preston Bradsher

Kade is a regular host for Don't Tell Comedy Richmond, and has performed at the Richmond Funnybone, The Port Comedy Club, Sandman Comedy Club, Last Word Comedy Festival, and upcoming P3 Comedy Festival.They've opened for Alex Hooper, Natasha Vaynblat, and more.
