Same Year's Eve is an annual improv show/party held on December 30th at The Hideout Theatre.
Summary
Every year on December 30th, improvisors from all around Austin descend on The Hideout Theatre. They put on a three-part show in the downstairs theater: the first act consists of games; the second part is a montage of scenes; and the third is an improvised musical narrative. Afterwards, there is a giant party for the improvisors upstairs at the Hideout. At midnight, everyone counts down to the "same year", and afterwards, improv notables deliver toasts to the rest of the community.
A large number of improvisors from throughout the community attend the event -- in 2012, Same Year's drew some ninety performers and another hundred improvisors who just came for the party.
The event was first held in 2008.
