Improv at the Brooks

A Night of Musical Improv Comedy


A Night of Musical Improv Comedy
brings two San Diego musical improv teams to OTC’s 219 for a night of unscripted songs and laughter.

Opening the show, The Musical Improv Project delivers their fun brand of musical improv games, turning audience suggestions into catchy tunes that will stick in your head for days and keep you laughing all night.

Headlining is the return of crowd favorite Basic Pitches. With a single audience suggestion, they create a fully improvised musical experience that will delight your ears—or at least make you laugh. This all-female team embraces the funny, the weird, and the fantastical, taking you on a journey of story, song, and sass. Every show is one-of-a-kind—don’t miss it!
