Improv AND
Sketch Comedy
A note from the Squad:
We have already started performing sketches at venues around LA to ROUSING laughter. And by that, we mean aROUSING laughter, which means it's accompanied by a boner.

You can see us do 15 minutes of those sketches at the Fanatic Salon, then get drunk with us, go to the bowling alley bar afterward, and possibly get hit on by a drunken divorcee who goes to the alley "just to think."
