ComedyCity Theatre Presents “Tipsy History”
|
Like you, the ComedyCity crew loves everything about Wisconsin. We especially love the Badger State’s rich culture and fascinating history. In fact, some of our troupe loves the state’s history so much that they want to re-enact it for you on our stage in a very Wisconsin-esque way.
This Friday, October 22, the ComedyCity crew brings to you “Tipsy History”. Just what is Tipsy History? It’s a show in which our improvisers take turns narrating various stories about Wisconsin. Those narrations are then played out on stage by the other performers who are hearing the story for the very
first time. The Wisconsin twist is that players might have consumed an old-fashioned or three before they take the stage.
Some of these stories may be well known while others might teach you something new. It likely won’t matter because, as the show goes on, the details become a bit hazier and much more inaccurate. The French fur trade. The Milwaukee bridge war. The Hodag of Rhinelander. They’re all fair game for the Tipsy Historians.
Crack open a cold one and come along with us on this hilarious ride through Wisconsin’s fabled past.
