What lies underneath? Let’s find out! Personal stories become improv fun as Commando performs the improv style of an Armando, a true story-based improv show.

Family Secrets
with Off Leash
Saturday, July 18th│7:30pm
Family Secrets
Join us for an evening of laughs at "Family Secrets" — an improv comedy show where your real-life family secrets inspire the scenes! Our quick-witted cast transforms audience-supplied anecdotes into family drama: awkward reunions, over-the-top relatives, and unexpected revelations, all played with warmth and playful absurdity. Bring a secret or sit back and enjoy the chaos — either way, expect genuine laughs, surprising twists, and a reminder that every family is wonderfully weird.
Off Leash
Who's a good dog? You are! That's why you're invited to join Off Leash! at the neighborhood dog park where you'll get to meet the eccentric residents and their litter of furry friends. Throw yourself a bone, fetch your pals, and have a ball with Off Leash! as they dig into the bizarre lives of the park's patrons and their peculiar pets.
*Doors are locked 15 minutes after the show begins.
The Open Jam/Open Mic
The Interchange Theater Co-op stage is OPEN and ready for you to play! This special blend of an open mic and open jam keeps the fun going. Do improv with new friends, try out your latest set, have fun!
And if you just want to enjoy the comedy, grab a drink and have a blast!
