The Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre has partnered with DCComedy.org to bring the very best improv comedians from their theatres in NYC and LA to DC.
The UCB TourCo show consists of two hilarious halves of the freshest longform improv the nation has to offer. The TourCo cast is hand-picked from the best improv comedians in New York City and Los Angeles – these performers are the “next wave” of comedy superstars from the theatre that brought you Amy Poehler, Horatio Sanz, Rob Corddry (The Daily Show), Ed Helms (The Daily Show, The Office), Rob Riggle (SNL, The Daily Show), Paul Scheer & Rob Huebel (Best Week Ever), and many more.
Note: These shows are held in the Forum of Sidney Harman Hall
The company is in town for an open run.
