Bringing improv comedy to the city of Richmond

NEW SHOW

May 2nd 2025

🎭 Richmond Improv Theatre Society Presents: MAY JAM! 🎭

Part mayhem, part jam session, this improv extravaganza is where spontaneous comedy collides with wild creativity. Featuring a variety of improv games, scenes, and unexpected twists, our open-format show brings together a fresh batch of Richmond Improv Theatre Society performers who are ready to stir-up the laughs.

And before the improv mayhem begins? We’ve got a double-decker delight to open the night:

🔥 Jon Endo (@jonendo) and 🔥 Cory Lupovichi (@corypoopoopeepee) – two standup comics who know how to get the jelly rollin’ with their sharp wit and spicy punchlines.

Whether you're a fan of unpredictable antics, sharp-tongued standup, or you just like your comedy served with a spoonful of chaos, May Jam is your jam.

So grab your friends and your best laugh – this night’s bound to be a jam-packed riot you’ll preserve in your memory for a while.
