Touring
Starting at The Second City over 10 years ago, THEE Improvised Musical has performed over 200 fully improvised musicals. Now, we're embarking on our Debut National Tour!We've opened for Rachel Bloom (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), and our openers have included Cheri Oteri (SNL), Brian McElhaney (BriTANick), & Spencer Breslin (our childhoods). Founded & directed by Conor Hanney, an Adjunct Professor at the University of Notre Dame and a comedy writer for Disney, Paramount, Nickelodeon, & Netflix, who has written neurodiverse musicals licensed by Princeton University.Accompanied by a band, the show is based only on an audience suggestion of a "made-up musical of any genre that you could imagine winning a Tony." (A Tony, for those unaware, is like an Oscar or Emmy but for theatre and worse.) Nothing is scripted, and nothing is rehearsed—if any of us could act in real musicals, we would be doing that.Email conorphanney@gmail.com for booking inquiries!
