ComedySportz is Philadelphia’s longest running comedy show! Every Saturday night two teams of improvisers vie for points in a hilarious competition similar to TV’s ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway?’ A referee governs the action and calls the fouls keeping the match fast, smart & funny. Appropriate for ALL ages.

Comedy often includes, and sometimes depends on, material that is personal, embarrassing, or way dirtier than anything you’d find yourself discussing around the family dinner table.
