Tahoe Comedy Improv Players Host ComedySportz San Jose In A Match Of Wits – MATINEE 4:00pm
October 19 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Tahoe Comedy Improv Players will be hosting ComedySportz San Jose in a match of wits between two teams of improvisation players for two shows on Saturday, October 19, 2024, at the Boathouse Theater on the Valhalla Tahoe Estate, Hwy 89 in South Lake Tahoe. The matinee show begins at 4:00pm and the evening show begins at 7:30 pm.
ComedySportz is a spoof on sports. Wearing blue and red uniforms, the players improvise scenes from audience suggestions. The audience selects the winner of each round and ultimately the match. A referee, in a zebra-striped jersey, keeps the match moving along, getting suggestions, keeping time, and when necessary, calls the ComedySportz fouls . . . for example if a player makes an off-color remark, they must sit out the rest of the scene, and the Groaner Foul is called when a player uses a pun that gets a groan from the audience.
The Tahoe Comedy Improv Players and ComedySportz San Jose have turned audience suggestions into hilarious scenes for over 30 years. Both are the longest-running live shows in their communities, Lake Tahoe and Silicon Valley and best of all, it’s fun for everyone. “We take great pride in performing shows fit for all ages,” said Gerry Orton, retiring director of Tahoe Comedy Improv Players.
“If you haven’t seen a ComedySportz match, you’re in for a treat,” said Jeff Kramer, Director and CEO of ComedySportz, San Jose. “Each show is unique, and no matter who wins the match, the real winner is always the audience.”
Reservations are strongly recommended.
