Description
Chris Grace and Ross Bryant are simultaneously the smartest and the silliest two-man improv show you'll ever see.

Chris Grace and Ross Bryant bring their decades of comedy experience together to create a singular improv event that’s simultaneously super smart and wildly dumb. Combining intelligence, wit, and an encyclopedic knowledge of the world with the ever-present danger of saying or doing something profoundly silly, Chris and Ross present a fully-improvised show that’s both highbrow and lowbrow at the same time.

They’ll take a single suggestion and spin it into an hourlong deep-dive into scenes like: two priests naming parts of church architecture to try to determine which of them is a fake, or a pair of scientists working on the Hubble Telescope that can’t figure out how a doorknob works.

It’s improv at its best: intricate, playful, surprising, and stupid in all the right ways. Come watch two of the sharpest comedic minds turn a single audience suggestion into a full-length, never-before-seen, and never-to-be-seen-again comedic journey.

You can also catch Chris and Ross as guest players on Kickstand's "Keep It Portland" improv show Saturday December 5th at 7:00pm
