After over a decade of bringing improv festivals to South Florida and at times the middle of the ocean, Marisa and I have decided to step back from producing festivals for a bit and refocus. This brings us to the very difficult and heartbreaking decision to postpone The O-Town Improv Festival for the foreseeable future.

To everyone who shared, attended, submitted, volunteered and sponsored our festivals over the years, thank you. You helped make them real and they would have never happened without you. You changed our lives with your dedication, positive attitudes, professionalism, talent, and friendship. It was an honor to hold these festivals because a fest is where ideas about improv expand and change. Your view of the entire artform changes after a workshop at a festival. You see what’s possible and you connect with people who are amazingly talented, and just as scared as you to perform. I got to hold that space for over ten years with the help of my amazing wife, great friends, and a community that said yes to our idea of a festival.
