Promotional Blurb

The Hideout is going behind the news and on the air with Local on the Eights: Improvised Small-Town News From a Larger-Than-Life News Team! This completely improvised comedy follows a small-town news team as they track down the day’s toughest stories, whether it be a trapped family of squirrels or Mayor Pickle’s annual re-election archery tournament.


All their hard work comes together as the theater turns into their intimate news studio, complete with real cameras and a TV broadcast feed!

Will their hard work pay off with a satisfying newscast, or will everything go haywire on live TV? The only way to find out is to tune in.
