Ball&Chain is an improv duo.

Summary

Press Blurb

Their press blurb, taken from a 2014 application to perform at The Hideout Theatre:

She's a hip gal from modern day Austin.

He's a fast-talking guy from 20s-era Chicago.

They're married.

This out-of-time couple delivers an improv comedy show exploring the nature of all kinds of relationships that happen even if they don't make sense.

It's just so crazy it works - that's the magic of Ball & Chain (real-life married couple Ruby Willmann and Troy A. Miller).

"What's Your Deal?"

Their answer to the "What's Your Deal?" question on a 2013 application to perform at The Hideout Theatre:

Our deal is that we're really a couple - yeah, not a novelty in improv - but we're taking our real-life age difference to the extreme, by playing our onstage personas as a couple consisting of individuals from two different time periods, spanning nearly 85 years.
