Phil Ward Live is one of only a few artists in folk music performing comedyand probably the only person in folk music doing comedy this twisted and unique. His solo career -composing, playing and singing humorous songs for guitar- has taken him to venues all over Southern California, from comedy clubs like The Ice House and The National Comedy Theatre to legendary music joints like The Whisky and Highland Grounds.
The Dick & The Dame: Improv Noir is an award-winning duo that brings the gritty underbelly of 1940s Los Angeles to life. John Conroy and Stacy Rumaker take audience suggestions, including the name of a made-up film noir, and improvise a spider web of corruption, deceit, greed, sex and laughs, set during the dark and dangerous days of Tinseltowns most iconic period. The pair plays numerous noir characters (sometimes even the same character) including femmes fatales, hardened detectives, innocent ingénues, hapless bell boys, and powerful kingpins. The show is a playful comedic valentine to a beloved genre, full of atmosphere and witty banter.
808: Hip Hop Improv is LA's finest Long Form Hip Hop Improv Group! You make up an album title, we turn it into a one time only show you'll never forget! *Reggae Horns*
