44 Hour Improv Marathon

“…sharp, focused, and riotously funny!”- The Austin Chronicle

*winner of a 2010 Austin Critic’s Table Award*

At 5:00pm on Friday, June 21st, eight brave and foolish improvisers will take the Hideout stage and stay there until 1pm on Sunday, June 23rd, performing 44 STRAIGHT HOURS of improvisational theatre and comedy without sleep or respite.

Each hour of the marathon will be a separate show, featuring classic and upcoming Hideout formats, one-off shows never to be seen again, and guest troupes and players from Austin’s ever-growing improv community.

Each hour of the marathon will cost $5 to watch. An all-access Marathon pass is available for $50, which, if you’re crazy brave enough to see all the shows, is a HUGE savings!

This year’s marathon will also be a fundraiser to raise money for the Hideout Youth Program. If you’d like to sponsor one of the marathon players and pledge 50 cents per exhausting, excruciating hour they’ll be on stage, head to our sponsorship page.

A portion of the ticket sales will be set aside to pay the tuition of children who would otherwise not be able to afford classes. The majority of donations, however, will come from people like you clicking the donate button to the right or sponsoring the marathoners directly.
