NEW House Troupe Auditions

The Comedy Arena is casting FOUR brand-new House Troupes and you can audition for one… or all of them.
This is your chance to get on stage regularly, collaborate with a dedicated ensemble, and perform in one of our most exciting specialty formats:
- Silent Sketch Troupe – physical storytelling, character, and comedy without words
- Puppet Improv Troupe – big characters, weird worlds, and full puppet chaos
- Parody Improv Troupe (Improvised “Blank”) – fully improvised movies, genres, and over-the-top storytelling
- Improvised Shakespeare – ay! Forsooth! drama, poetry, betrayal… and probably a ghost
Whether you love character work, genre play, or bold theatrical improv, there’s a troupe for you.
