Join Highwire Improv for a community improv jam. Open to all levels, we'll get settled with introductions, some group warm-ups, and a boundaries check-in to make sure we're all ready to play our best with one another. Everyone will get a chance to privately share their comfort level with improv, and then we'll be sorted into teams with a mix of folks from beginner to experienced. Each team will get time on stage while the rest of the groups cheer, laugh, and support. We'll start with straightforward two-person improv scenes before building up to more advanced moves like walk-on characters and group scenes. After each team has had their turn, we'll all share some things that made us laugh, and folks will be free to hang out, chat, and connect with some new and old improv friends!

The 2nd Annual Charm City Burlesque and Variety Festival runs Friday September 27 through Saturday September 28, 2024 at Baltimore’s Creative Alliance, home to some of Baltimore’s first burlesque and variety shows. Burlesque is many things. It is sexy. It is sly. It is seductive. It shines a light on the morals and foibles of modern life and mocks them openly. In Baltimore, Burlesque is all of those things, and it is also unabashedly weird, strange, dark, funny, and a little bit twisted. Baltimore’s burlesque and variety stages have always welcomed the different and the avant-garde. Baltimore marvels in the filthy, the strange, the strangely beautiful, and the sometimes questionable and it makes it its own. The Charm City Burlesque & Variety Festival celebrates all.
Buy your tickets online, in person, or over the phone by calling 410-276-1651. Members save $3 on almost every show!
Our Box Office is currently open from Noon to 6pm on Fridays and Saturdays and one hour before all ticketed events. We accept cash, cards, and checks. Service fees are waived for in-person ticket purchases.
