DISTRICT 9
District 9 Comedy is the longest running BIPOC improv team in Denver (six years and counting)! In our show, we share authentic stories from our varied experiences, then create worlds that bring them to life. Expect to be surprised, challenged, and delighted by the joy and chaos that erupts when these performers take the stage.

ONCE UPON A RHYME
"Your favorite stories turned into your new favorite rap songs." Once Upon a Rhyme creates rap songs in the worlds of audience members' favorite stories, typically as the characters in those stories, with the goal of sounding polished enough to play on the radio in their worlds.
CAST: Rodney Conyers Jr., Dylan Oakes Rohde
