The Common Air
"Everyone travels with baggage..."
"A complex network of ideas... Characters are developed with subtlety and depth... Punctuated with precision and sensitivity." --Backstage West
THE COMMON AIR links six distinct characters during an airport delay. The reason is unknown, but the buzz is insinuating a terrorist conspiracy. Rumors fly as each character speaks to the next. Coming full circle, the last character addresses the first, illuminating the perpetually changing narratives we arrive at, and depart from, in trying to make sense of life’s ever-evolving present tense.
Friday - Saturday at 8pm
February 8 - March 8

Crisis Hopkins
San Francisco's comedy improv/sketch comedy group Crisis Hopkins brings it's touring show "Listen to Reason!" to Los Angeles. Comedy with a NoCal flair.
Crisis Hopkins was a 19th century San Francisco street preacher who harangued passersby with sermons on the value of free-thinking.
Crisis Hopkins is a 21st century San Francisco improv troupe that has little in common with their namesake, except for the free-thinking part. Expect games, scenes, rants, and rap with Lily Harvey, Christopher Hayes, Julie Potter, Sam Shaw, and Anthony Veneziale.
$15
Open improv jam to follow.

Asylum Improv Jam
Come down to the Theatre asylum every Thursday night at 10pm. Catch Long Form style improv at its best in a fun, supportive and relaxed environment, brought to you by C.A.F.E. (Combined Art Form Entertainment) and Theatre Asylum. Regular performers from schools such as ACME, Improv Olympic, Second City and Groundlings will keep you in stitches with their unique blend of styles and techniques. The night consists of 3 to 4 sets, each around 25 minutes where anyone who wants to perform will get their chance.
Every other Thursday you can catch a set of "Sounds Like a Song" where the players sing along to music and create their very own improvised songs, just like a mini Broadway musical. Whether you want to get up and perform or just sit back and enjoy the show, a mere $5 gets you in the door. If you're thirsty you can grab a drink before you go in. Need a little snack to keep the blood sugar up? You can also purchase a delicious cookie from Freshly-Baked cookie company with exciting flavors like the "The Tutti Frutti Oatgasm" and "Monkey Nut Blast". Great improv, great people, good drinks, good snacks and good times all at a great price...what more could you ask for on a Thursday night?
Come on down to the Asylum Improv Jam and join the hottest thing since sliced bread.

.LOVE
Shortly after being let in the theater for the first rehearsal of “.LOVE” at Off-Market, creator Richard Jennings came flying out into the hallway looking for ice. Now, this is not totally unusual, as we PianoFighters frequently hunt for ice in the mid afternoon in need of a nice cold drink. However, with Richard Jennings, it’s different - he’s an old guy.
Runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm
February 8th - March 1st
w/ a Special Valentines Day Performance (8:00 pm)
