The world's largest sketch-comedy festival returns for another year with over 100 troupes performing 125 shows at the Theatre Building. The festival that began as a seven-week extravaganza for local comedy troupes has been condensed to 11 days, gone international, and become (surprisingly) kid-friendly. Guffaw with old local favorites like pH Productions and GayCo or chuckle at a new crew of comedians from as far as LA and Manchester. Make sure you stop by both Saturday nights at midnight to experience a festival cornerstone, the Sketchubator — a five-minute laboratory for new material.
