Vermont Comedy Awards
Oscars? Please.
Grammys? Whatever.
Tonys? SUCK IT.

We'll have prizes, paparazzi, and plenty of punchlines. It's free and open to the public! (Ticket reservations are recommended.)
Get gussied up (VT style) and walk the red carpet with us as we celebrate the Vermont comedy scene!

Challenge Wheel (FREE!)
It's the return of everyone's favorite game show, where we make improv even harder!
GREAT IF YOU ENJOY...
SNL, Dropout TV
SHOW: Wed, Jun 24th @ 7pm
TICKETS: FREE!
FEATURING: TBA!
ABOUT THE SHOW
Nathan Hartswick (sometimes called "Vermont's Dollar-Store Sam Reich") hosts this chaotic game show that puts local improv teams to the test!
As if creating spontaneous comedy isn't hard enough, Nathan makes each team spin a multicolored wheel that ADDS a challenge to their performance.
They may have to do scenes with marbles in their mouth. Maybe one team member has to play dead the entire time. Will they have to incorporate a LIVE HORSE onstage with them? Probably not, but you just NEVER KNOW -- and THAT'S THE POINT.
At the end of the show, Nathan Hartswick (sometimes called "Vermont's Budget Taskmaster") will choose a winning team to receive a very low-value prize.
It's [even-higher-stakes] improv comedy that is sure to have you laughing - from the edge of your seat. Don't miss it!
