About Me

Our shows are every Saturday night at 10:00 at the Overtime Theater, 1216 West Ave, San Antonio, TX. Starting March 29 we will kick off our first long-form improv show, a 45 minute unscripted play based on suggestions from our audience. The audience will get to name the show and characters and through their suggestions, guide the story to it’s hilarious conclusion. Each week will be a different genre as suggested by the previous week’s audience.We will take this show on the road, so if the price is right we would love to do a show for your company picnic, office party, family reunion, high school reunion, you name it. Book us for your party and we’ll give you a comedy experience you’re guests will be talking about for years.
