Draft Night featuring Fractal
November 22nd 7:30pm
The PREMIERE OF DRAFT NIGHT
Draft Night - Our players will be drafting the ultimate Thanksgiving feast. We'll debate what makes for the best Thanksgiving meal. Will the turkey be drafted number 1? Will grandma's potato salad be overlooked? Is cranberry sauce a dark horse? Only one way to find out!
Fractal - Fractal starts the night with a multiverse of realities colliding on stage to create an explosion of infinite comedy.
*Doors are locked 15 minutes after the show begins.
Broadminded Comedy Presents: Midlife Crisis
November 23rd - 7:30pm
Broadminded, returns with another original sketch comedy show, "Midlife Crisis". Has your doctor approved you for laughter? Milwaukee’s, uh, oldest sketch comedy group, broadminded comedy, is tackling the world of midlife crises. From empty nesting and bucket lists, to questionable life choices and Double Dare, the broads are bringing moments of this life stage to the Interchange Theater stage.
To make these shows even more awesome, Improv comedy openers will get the nights started:
November 23rd - The Journal
