Improv is the perfect alternative to your typical private event. Each and every private show we perform is completely customizable and unique to YOUR group. The show we perform for you will have never been seen by anyone else… and it will never be seen again!

How it works
Our show consists of short scenes that are improvised on the spot based on a variety of information. Throughout the show, our cast will ask questions and improvise scenes based on the answers we receive. We also use a packet of information you provide us before the show to incorporate specific, inside details about your group into our scenes. It’s always a fun surprise when Matt from Marketing (who just loves ballroom dancing) is mentioned in a scene without him even saying a word! Private shows can be held at any time or anywhere you want! Come to our 200-seat theater in the North End or let us do the traveling and we’ll come to you! We have entertained all sorts of associations, non-profit organizations, schools, and companies across the country, so there’s no limit to what we can do! Think your group might want some food and drinks? Let’s make that happen, too!

We are located at 216 Hanover Street in Boston’s North End. Please keep in mind that these directions are to our door. Street parking in the North End is extremely limited. You should plan at least an extra 30 minutes to find parking or park in one of the many parking garages in the area. We do, however, validate at the Haymarket Center Garage (formerly Parcel 7). The entrance is at 136 Blackstone Street. It’s $3 for up to three hours*. Just remember to bring down your parking ticket to be scanned at our box office or the deal is off! *If you park for longer than 3 hours, you will be charged the garage’s full rate from the time you entered to the time you leave. Improv Asylum is easily accessible via public transportation, Route 93 and the Mass. If your taking the Red line to Downtown Crossing, switch to Orange line to Haymarket. Red line to Park Street, switch to Green line to Haymarket. Blue line to Government Center, switch to Green line to Haymarket. Once you’re at Haymarket Station: Take the T to Haymarket Station. Exit through the Green Line entrance. When you come up the escalator, turn right and follow the road headed towards the Rose Kennedy Greenway – it bears left and then you come out at Cross Street. Turn right on Cross Street (you will see a Citizens Bank ATM on your left) and take the next left onto Hanover St. We are half a block down on the left, 216 Hanover Street.
