One Saturday in San Francisco, what improv should I see?

Post by happywaffle »

I'll be in Sacramento over the weekend of the 25th-26th, and I'm pondering whether to go skiing in one direction, or go to SF in the other direction.

If I choose the foggy hilly city, what improv show would you suggest I see?

BATS has been doing a "1930s Romantic Comedy", which I'm pretty sure is their version of a Screwball Comedy. Bound to be fun.

Also, go to the Bourbon & Branch library bar. Or Rickhouse. Or both.

Back before my knees started hating me, we used to go to Dodge Ridge. If you vote for sunny hills over the foggy city, you might want to check that out....just sayin.

The new long form improv scene in SF is represented by Endgames, since 2010. I saw their players perform at DCM last year, they were pretty good. They just have shows fridays and wednesdays though. They're doing the interview-"Your-Fucked-up-blank" type format (similar to the Death By Roo Roo version I guess)
