Musical Matinee: Improv Comedy at The Highwire Center at Highwire Improv – Baltimore, MD

Tonight's lineup is:

Unofficial: Unofficial is an improvised musical that doesn’t need approval. Every show is completely unauthorized, unscripted, and unrepeatable. Expect story-driven performances with wild characters and grand story arcs, original songs, clever lyrics, and surprising twists. Whether you love Off-Broadway-style creativity, genre mashups, or high-energy fun, this intimate, immersive show gives Baltimore a bold, experimental, must-see indie musical that pushes the limits of Baltimore theater!

Sondheimlich Maneuver: Sondheimlich Maneuver makes up entire musicals on the spot — songs, plot twists, epic quests and all. Timeless story shapes meet the strange magic of everyday life, and no two shows are ever the same. Expect big laughs, surprising heart, and the singular thrill of watching a musical get written in real time right in front of you.

What is an improv show, exactly?

Improv is live theater created spontaneously by the performers with the inspiration of the audience. Unless noted otherwise, it’s a comedy show, made even more exciting, intriguing, and hilarious by the fact that none of it is pre-scripted! At an improv show you’ll see a wide range of creative and fascinating humans perform a highwire act by making comedy out of thin air! It can take many forms, including short competitive games, slice of life scenes, and full length sitcom or movie style performances!

A Highwire Improv show is truly a once in a lifetime performance, never done before and never to be done again!
