WEEKLY GUEST TROUPE LISTINGS

Friday, 2 /27

SECRET CRUSH: Secret Crush is a long-form improv show fueled by terrible secrecy and extremely obvious feelings. Long before the show begins, each improviser secretly chooses the next player on the team as their “secret improv crush”—someone they’ve long admired but rarely, if ever, performed with. So the ensemble you'll see will be a one-time-only affair.

Friday, 3/6

DUCKDUCK GOOSEBUS: Honk Honk! All Aboard! Please have your tickets ready. This trio on wheels will be leaving the station shortly. Where to? No one knows. But we're powered by unleaded laughter and the important thing is we'll get somewhere, together. It's a one way trip. See you on the other side. Sincerely, GooseBus CAST: Aiden Garcia, Dru Sanders, Dylan Pierce
