The Connecticut Cage Match Series is a no holds barred competition where two improv teams compete head-to-head – and you (the audience) decide the winner. Only one team will be victorious and your vote counts!

The winner returns to defend their title at the next show of the series.

Bring your friends and come vote for the best improv team in this one to one match up.

CT Cage Match is the collaborative program of Playhouse on Park, Hole in the Wall Theater, the Carriage House Theatre and Hot Cocco Productions. Two matches will be held at Playhouse on Park, two at Hole in the Wall Theater and two at the Carriage House Theatre.

The next match, scheduled for Jan. 9, at 8 p.m. at Playhouse on Park, pits improv group SHED against Horse Lincoln. SHED is a new team out of Sea Tea Improv. Since 2008, Horse Lincoln has practiced and performed long form comedy in Storrs, CT, Hartford, Philadelphia, and New York City. Kevin MacDermott will host this month’s CT Cage Match.
