The 42-Hour Improv Marathon
From Austin Improv Community Wiki
The 42-Hour Improv Marathon was the third annual Hideout Improv Marathon. It was performed in 2011.
Two attendees at the event, Ryan Hill and Cat Drago, decided to start doing improv after watching long stretches of the marathon. The following year, they would come back to perform in one of the hours of The 43-Hour Improv Marathon.
