North Coast, New York City's Premiere Hip­Hop Long­Form Improv show will be starting a weekly run at The Peoples Improv Theater starting June 2014. Formed in February 2009, North Coast weaves Long­Form Improvisation and the elements of Hip­Hop together to form an energetic and dynamic show. They have performed all over the country at festivals, colleges, theaters, corporations, and private events.

In combination with the recent acquisition of Kevin Laibson as the Artistic Director at the PIT, North Coast will perform every Saturday night at 8pm in the PIT Underground Theater in a trial run that will include opening acts from the New York comedy, music, and dance communities.

"North Coast has been a crowd pleaser at the North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival (NCCAF) for years. I highly recommend North Coast as an interactive comedy program for presenters and Student Activity directors." - Zach Ward, DSI Comedy Theater owner and NCCAF Executive Producer,
