History

RhinoDino was initially conceptualized sometime in 2011 by good friends Quinn Buckner, Kyle Traughber, and Colin Bates as a troupe that would perform "improvised heavy metal." This format was never realized, though RhinoDino began playing short-form shows together at The Salvage Vanguard Theatre in early 2012. In September, 2012, Lacy Shawn and Courtney Hopkin joined RhinoDino. Colin Bates recently re-located to Houston, but the remainder of the troupe remains intact and continues to perform regularly, with Colin Bates joining whenever he is in town.

RhinoDino previously served as the "House Troupe" for The Derby.

Format

RhinoDino primarily performs short-form improv, with a specialization in naive games. RhinoDino currently has a show at Salvage Vanguard Theater on the fourth Friday of every month at 10PM. RhinoDino has also performed at The Hideout Theatre, The Institution Theater, and ColdTowne Theater.
