ImprovBoston Presents Doubled Over: A Duo Comedy Fest

Batman and Robin. Laverne and Shirley. Ernie and Bert. ImprovBoston celebrates signature duos at its second annual Doubled Over: A Duo Comedy Fest, a showcase of Boston's funniest comedy pairs performing improv, sketch, and more.

Comedic duos who think they have what it takes to keep audiences doubled over submit their acts. Then ImprovBoston producers handpick the best of the best to perform 15 minute acts aimed to leave the audience laughing out loud.

"The history of comedy is marked with iconic twofers," says ImprovBoston Artistic Director Mike Descoteaux, "and Boston has no shortage of brilliant and dynamic duos. We're proud to shine a spotlight on the power of two."

The festival also features a wildcard round, where one half of a duo teams up with half of another duo to form a WildCard SuperDuo chosen that night by the audience. Will Doubled Over spark the next big two-performer powerhouse? The audience will find out.

Doubled Over: A Duo Comedy Fest runs February 3rd and 10th at 10PM at ImprovBoston. Tickets are available at ImprovBoston.com/schedule.
