New Comedy Theater in Bloomingdale, The Unified Scene Theater, having an open house Aug. 22nd

80 T Street, NW

“It’s finally here: the reception/open house for the much-anticipated release of The Unified Scene Theater.

What’s The Unified Scene Theater? It’s an actual brick-and-mortar comedy theater in the heart of Bloomingdale, one that privileges and catalyzes the highly energized, highly galvanized improvisational comedy scene here in Washington, DC. It’s a permanent home (finally) for those wayward types raised on the collaborative art of improvisational comedy, an art that’s completely transformed comedy as an art form, not just here in America but globally.

What will it do? The Unified Scene will offer improv comedy performances and shows on most nights of the week, and classes and workshops in improv (both beginning and advanced) on others.

But that’s not all: it will also a multi-use performance, rehearsal, event, and meeting space that will also provide training and classes beneficial to performers, writers, and creative thinkers of all kinds. We’re proudly an incubator to DC’s growing art and performance scene, and proudly a “comedy locavore” here in Bloomingdale.

And we’re opening our doors to our neighbors, our friends, our family, anyone who wants to stop by. That’s right: if you’re reading this, you’ve got an all-access pass. Free. Don’t cost nothin’! So stop by. Peek in. Give us a listen. We think you’ll like what you hear.
