About this event:

Step into the delightfully bizarre world of ‘The Squishy Squamedy Show’ – where improv comedy crashes headfirst into theatrical mayhem!

First, watch our fearless improvisers turn your suggestions into comedic gold, creating never-to-be-repeated scenes that dance on the edge of absurdity.

Then, strap in for the premiere of ‘Head Space’ – a one-act comedy where two alien enthusiasts find love, friendship, and way more than they bargained for when EDM-loving extraterrestrials crash-land in their town. Add a sasquatch, some questionable toad venom, and one determined FBI agent, and you’ve got a cosmic cocktail of comedy that’s truly out of this world.

One part improvised mayhem, one part close encounters of the weird kind.

Get ready for ‘The Squishy Squamedy Show’ – where the truth isn’t just out there, it’s absolutely hilarious!
