Crashbar Improv
Personal plug: this is my improv show. My team, IT GIRL, is first in the line-up. Now that I've made full disclosure, allow me to describe this as one of the most fun improv shows ever. The Clubhouse is a great venue, casual and comfy, and they provide beer for a donation. The line-up is stellar. If you feel like laughing on a Sunday evening, come on by.
