THE TRIPLE SCOOP - COMEDY TROUPE NIGHT

The Triple Scoop - A Night of Comedy! Headlined by The Institution Theater’s own premiere Harold troupe - iScream Sandwich: The Harold, a classic longform improv format, is a triple scoop of comedy in its own right. iSS is an appetizing team of improvists—including Heidi Caldwell, Erica Lies, Andrew Robinson, Regina Soto, Wyatt Tall, Carissa McAtee and Marv Pratt—taking on the Harold with their own custom flavors and unique toppings!

This week's opening acts are:

Galactic: Galactic is husband and wife Joshua Gill and Lisa Jackson. Using deep character work, they explore the straight/absurd dynamic, often colliding the worlds of disparate characters. Both Josh and Lisa have a deep abiding love for science fiction, and the heart of Galactic started in the genre. It is not uncommon for their shows to feature alien human relationships, time travel, deep space, and alternate universes. Each of their shows is a unique journey into their demented minds and often their loving relationship as well.

Dance Card: There are so many inappropriate ways to sell a show with two middle-aged men and two twentysomething women that the appropriate ways no longer come to mind. Let's just say that it's four pretty good improvisers having a really good time. That's enough for now.

Stand Up Host: Joe Faina Joe Faina is a comedian and improviser from Austin, TX. He is the producer of the comedy debate show Point of Order at The New Movement Theater and a cast member of the Encyclopedia Show-Austin.
