  • Go Miz Yourself

    Go Miz Yourself

    Victor Hugo's novel Les Miserables was turned into the third biggest musical of all time. It also inspired several movies and is now a movie musical that's been as inescapable as Christmas music. All this over a stolen loaf of bread. In the case... More »

  • 2012 | Best Improv Show

    Anonymous once said, "You get what you pay for." In regards to the McDonald's dollar menu, Anonymous was probably right, but he was dead wrong about the doubleheader improv show at the Upright Citizens Brigade: "Last Day of School" and "Convoy." For $5 at 11 p.m. on Thursdays you can see two of the most seasoned and reliably hilarious improv teams in town. "LDoS" improvises scenes based on audience text messages. "Convoy" asks for a one-word suggestion and wows audiences with the esoteric... More »

  • 2012 | Best Sunday Night Improv

    You can't do much better than paying five bucks for a hilarious, celebrity-packed live show in a 92-seat theater. Shitty Jobs is the highlight of UCB's weekly slate, featuring a rambunctious crew of elastic comedians, most of whom have been making each other laugh on- and offstage since they were undergrads at NYU. The boys interview an audience member about his or her worst job and then spin an impromptu performance from its absurdities; psychotic bosses abound. Ben Schwartz steals every... More »

  • 2009 | BEST HOUR OF ACTUALLY FUNNY IMPROV COMEDY

    Sometimes your friends invite you to things like an improv comedy show. Then you go, realize that you're not laughing, and try to decide what the best time would be to punch that same friend in the mouth. But there is good improv out there, and one of the best deals in town is at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, where you can see two genuinely funny half-hour shows, back-to-back, for a mere $5. Every Thursday night at 11 p.m., Last Day of School and Convoy are performed by some of the... More »
