The Tuesday Night Jam was a weekly free improv jam at the Hideout Theatre that ran from 2005 until 2009.
The jam was set up to be leaderless and free-form, though in practice, it usually turned into more of an informal class led by a more experienced improvisor like Tom Booker, Wesley Bain, or Michael Joplin running a standard collection of beginners' exercises. Many Hideout improvisors, such as Michael Thomas, Andreas Fabis, and Peter Rogers, attended the jam regularly during its heyday.
In 2009, the jam was discontinued and replaced with a monthly free "intro to improv" class at the Hideout.
