THEATRE + COMEDY

The Improv Comedy Showcase and Restaurant presents New Faces of Comedy. Featuring comedians from HBO, Comedy Central, and the break room at your job. Open Mic Night! No drink minimum! 18 and up!

There’s a new hot spot on Wednesdays, and it’s smack dab in the middle of town at your favorite comedy club, The Houston Improv! We’re so excited to introduce this show, for the true fans of stand-up comedy! What’s the catch? Not everyone on this show is a professional comic, some are just starting out. You know how you love to watch the first couple episodes of American Idol where you don’t know what to expect from the performers? That’s exactly the kind of show this is, live and in person!

You and your friends can try being a stand-up comic in our showroom, or you can sit back and enjoy the show with our drink specials! Also on this show expect to see local and out of town professionals from COMEDY CENTRAL, HBO, LAST COMIC STANDING, THE TONIGHT SHOW, DEF COMEDY JAM and THE MONTREAL COMEDY FESTIVAL trying out new material, or bringing their A-game to impress talent scouts! You never know who’s going to drop in here, at the premiere definitive open-mic of the Gulf Coast, NEW FACES OF COMEDY!

Bar opens at 7pm, the show starts at 8pm in the showroom upstairs.

Any interested performers email your name to openmicimprov@gmail.com  72 hours before the show on the previous Monday from 9am to 9pm. Any emails time stamped before or after this time period will be disregarded. The list will be posted on this site the next day, Tuesday at 12 noon or when I'm back from my lunch break.
