Topping Haggerty Experience is the one-person improvised long form show performed by Topping Haggerty.


History

The Topping Haggerty Experience ("THE") has had many different formats. Topping develops 5 to 6 disparate characters and slowly knits their lives together showing how they affect each other and alter each others universe and lives. The show has been performed for 30-minute slots as well as 50-minute slots.

THE was first performed in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as 'CamelBack', and has had many unique formats since then. It has been performed in Finland (2013), Austin (2002-present), Boston (2010), Toronto (2003, 2005), Miami (2004), Chicago (2002), New York City (2002-2008), Atlanta (2005, 2006, 2008, 2010), Houston (2012), and Buenos Aires (2002).
