The Hideout Improv Marathon

The Hideout Improv Marathon is an annual improv event at The Hideout Theatre.

Summary

In the improv marathon, a core cast of eight improvisors performs some number of one-hour improv shows, back-to-back and without sleep. Every hour brings a different show format, and with it, different guests who specialize in that format.

In its first year, the marathon was a fundraiser for the Hideout itself. The next year, it became a fundraiser for The Hideout Theatre Youth Scholarship Fund.

History

The marathon originated with The 40-Hour Improv Marathon in 2009. The event has recurred every subsequent year, with the number of hours incrementing by one every time.
