Quick-witted, good-natured and flat-out funny, Clayton exploded onto the national comedy scene when he won "Last Comic Standing" in 2015. His victory lap took him to stages across the country, including ours. Since then he's been racking up the TV credits too, including a role in the Disney + series "Hawkeye." This winter he's back to headline the DC Improv a fourth time.

Seating Policies
- Matinees, the first show of any evening in our main showroom and all shows in our lounge showroom are seated by time of arrival. The earlier you arrive, the more options you'll have. Please note that the size of your party can affect what options are available to you, as certain tables and areas are designated for larger parties.
