Loose Cannons Improv, Thursday 8:00pm

Every show at Loose Cannons is a one-of-a-kind experience—exciting, unexpected, a little dangerous, and always ridiculously fun.

Part One: The night kicks off with a unique performance from special guest improvisers showcasing their signature style or a never-before-seen format. Your suggestions fuel the fire, and the improvisers will ignite the stage, bringing your ideas to life.

Part Two: Buckle up because anything can happen. This half begins with a single audience suggestion—and that’s where the chaos begins. Improvisers dive in, riffing, playing, and building connections through a dynamic opening game. It could be a song, a monologue, or a whirlwind group association—whatever emerges will spark the stories, scenes, and surprises that follow.

The performers are true loose cannons, and you’re the one lighting the fuse. What will they create? It’s entirely up to you. Come for the comedy, stay for the thrill—you never know what’s going to explode onto the stage.

Unpredictable, Unfiltered, Unmissable
