What is improv comedy?
Short form improv comedy is a style of improvisational comedy in which performers create scenes, characters, and jokes on the spot based on audience suggestions, often using a set of pre-determined games or formats. In short form improv, scenes are typically shorter and more focused on rapid-fire jokes and comedic situations than in long form improv. Examples of short form games include “Whose Line Is It Anyway?”, “Scenes from a Hat”, and “Party Quirks”. Short form improv is often performed in comedy clubs, theaters, and festivals, and is a popular form of entertainment due to its fast-paced and unpredictable nature.
Do I have to be 21 to see your improv comedy show?
Is your show appropriate for minors?
In most cases, our shows are open to all ages. When we perform at the Sawubona Creativity Project, no food or drinks are served, so attendees of any age are welcome. However, if you see us performing at a different location, there may be age restrictions. Our current weekly performance location is a BYOB theater, so please bring drinks or snacks responsibly. We cannot provide cups or store anything at our location.
Please note that the N Crowd’s Friday night shows are not “family-friendly”. The content of our show is solely based on the suggestions we receive from the audience, and it varies from week to week. Therefore, we cannot predict with certainty how each show will go, but we strive to maintain classiness. If you are comfortable with occasional adult situations and language, then our show should be enjoyable for you.
Is The N Crowd’s improv comedy show available for hire and private shows?
While we perform improv comedy every Friday night in Philadelphia at the Sawubona Creativity Project, we are also available for hire! We’ve performed improv comedy for birthdays, conferences, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and other special events. Our comedy troupe can come to you, or you can come to us. In some cases, with advanced notice, you can buy out one of our Friday night shows. Jefferson University does this for students during their Finals Week. We can also work with you to produce a show at a great venue that hosts many of our anniversary shows: The Ruba Club. Contact us today, and we’ll be able to find the right comedy solution for you. We have years of experience and can tailor our show to fit your needs! Interested in booking The N Crowd for your event? Please fill out our online booking request form
