Event Description

Get your night started with three great improv teams!  This show features Listen, StupidThe Friendship Club, and Well Known Strangers!


Featured Acts:


Listen, Stupid


Listen, Stupid hails from the mean streets of Detroit. Well, really the nicely paved streets of the suburbs, but they still bring the city’s hustle and honesty to every show they do. Nuverre Naami and Tom Novik have been performing together since 2013, playing various shows, events, and festivals, and at a variety of venues and theaters. This duo loves to play all kinds of characters, using a montage of scenes to patiently explore and connect everyday relationships and encounters.


The Friendship Club


Real life roommates and best friends Eleanor Lewis and Peter Appleby combine to form The Friendship Club! The Friendship Club promises smart, hilarious improv with a surprising amount of humanity for a pair of programmers.


Well Known Strangers


The Well Known Strangers have been together and performing their unique and ever-evolving brand of long-form improv in and around the city of Pittsburgh for over four years. They began at Steel City Improv theater and were the longest running house team until they retired in September of 2013. Though the Strangers themselves have seen a few different iterations, the high quality and cohesive performances of this pizza-obsessed improv family remains constant. Using the combined years of experience of each Stranger and elements of multiple forms, the Well Known Strangers pull together a new, fresh, dynamic, hilarious, hot from the oven and ready-to-order set of comedy every show.


Official Selections: Chicago Improv Festival 13, Detroit Improv Festival 13, Chicago Improv Festival 14, Pittsburgh Comedy Festival 14


Now, independently, you can find them every Thursday at The Cabaret at Theater Square as hosts of the Pittsburgh Improv Jam.
