This is the true story (true story) of 7 random sci-fi/fantasy/comic book characters forced to live and work together in a house, without their powers, and have their lives interrupted.

Find out what happens when your favorite characters stop being fictional… and start getting Real. 

Each night, our talented cast of Funhouse improvisors will portray a collection of your favorite characters, and create a story line based on your suggestions. 

Will Gandalf the Grey refuse to do the dishes?

Will Han Solo’s snoring keep Dr. Who awake? 

Will Voldemort and Wonder Woman hook up?

These are only a few of the millions of possible scenarios. And since it’s improvised, every night is a different adventure.  

Whatever kind of nerd you are, this is the show for you.

Thursdays thru Saturdays, April 6th – 22nd, 7PM (three weeks only!)

TICKETS START at $15 – VIP/ Booth seats available
