"This festival was a joy from start to finish. Don't let the small size fool you- it is deliberately scheduled that way to maximize the audiences, who are truly knowledgeable and delighted to attend the shows. Our hosts were perfect. No shit, we would come back to Providence ANY TIME. The Providence Improv festival is a true gem and we are lifetime fans."

This is a great festival, run by great people. - Jimmy Carrane, Improv Nerd Podcast

Providence, was recently designated “The Coolest City In The U.S.” by GQ magazine. And from September 21-23... it gets even cooler, as we host three days of performances, workshops, and after-parties at our downtown theatre spaces. During the festival there will be a lighting of the world famous Waterfire in Downtown Providence. Be a part of a festival, rub elbows with some incredible performers, and check out some of the world-class food, art, and fun that Providence can offer within an intimate and picturesque cityscape. Just a stone’s throw from Boston or New York! It’s a small-city festival with a big-city vibe.
