ComedySportzDC offers clean improv comedy. Two teams battle for laughs and points as they make up scenes and songs on the spot. The audience shouts out all the suggestions and votes for the winners, while the referee calls the fouls. It's not a comedy show ABOUT sports, it's the comedy show that IS a sport – similar to what you’ve seen on “Whose Line.” This show is "all ages," meaning that people under the age of 18 may attend.

Music fans the world over have heard of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and know the legendary status held by those venerated artists immortalized through induction in its hallowed historical canon. But unfortunately only a small number of the most devoted audiophiles know of the, admittedly, much less important but none the less equally self-aggrandizing honor held by those inducted into the Soft Rock Hall of Fame. Indeed, some of the most mediocre, milquetoast or just plain misunderstood performers of every generation have received the recognition they, perhaps, did not necessarily deserve by becoming members of this mildly respectable institution. Now, for the first time ever, the DC Improv and the Midnight Gardeners League are proud to host a truly special event, in which the world renowned "bland pop" sensations the International Boys Society (lovingly remembered as "IBS") finally have their day and are welcomed into the Soft Rock Hall of Fame fold, fifteen years after they permanently disbanded. Come be regaled with their tales from the road, eye-opening behind-the-scenes anecdotes and a one-of-a-kind final reunion performance!

John Witherspoon is a comedy institution. Most people know him from TV and movies -- he’s the crazy father figure from “Friday,” “The Wayans Brothers” and “The Boondocks.” He’ll do anything to entertain his fans – he once cut a rap album, and he has his own internet cooking show. And he continues to tour as a great stand-up comedian. Spoon is endearing and honest, and he knows how to send a crowd home happy. One of our favorites!

The result of quick thinking and reacting will give a performer the confidence to face any crowd. Prerequisite: Level 1 and 2 or permission from instructor and principal.

Come out and wordplay! You're invited to watch or compete in Pun DMV, our pun contest. The night is hosted by Dana Fleitman, and it has two events:

The Tournament: An on-the-spot punning tournament featuring up to 20 people. At the start of each match, contestants are given a theme. They then take turns making up puns on the spot. People are eliminated when they're stumped. The last person standing moves on to the next round (or victory)! Anyone in attendance can compete, and you can sign up on site when you arrive.

The Freestyle: Each competitor chooses a punning theme, then prepares in advance a two-minute speech packed with puns inspired by that theme. On the night of the show, the competitors deliver their speeches on stage. We'll pick a few finalists, based on quality of puns and overall delivery. Then the audience will decide the winner by cheering. If you'd like to compete in the Freestyle (or Pun DMV Remix) please e-mail chris@dcimprov.com for more information.

The winners of either contest get prizes from the Improv (and eternal glory)! Click here for more info on Pun DMV, including videos of how the games work.

AKA "Improv for Fun!" A class for people who want to learn improv games while having fun playing with other improvisers. The focus is on building confidence, communication skills and a sense of play -- improv training often helps people develop teamwork and creative thinking. While students are coached to learn new games and skills, less time is spent on preparing for a performance, and more time is spent on simply having fun. This class is both for beginning improvisers who want to learn the games they've seen in shows, and for experienced improv students who want to recapture a sense of playfulness in their games and scenes. Click here to learn more about other comedy school classes.

Tuition for this class is $250. Once payment is made, there are no refunds, exchanges or cancellations. All classes are 18 and over.

Margaret Cho could be called the Queen of all Media, having conquered the worlds of film, television, books, music and theatre. She has five Grammy Award nominations (two for music albums, "Cho Dependent" and "American Myth") and one Emmy nod for her groundbreaking work on "30 Rock." In 2017, Rolling Stone magazine named her one of the 50 Best Stand-Up Comics, calling her "the sort of funny, sex-positive feminist and LGBT activist younger comics continue to look up to."
