Ophelia’s Rope started in 2012 and is the longest performing improv duo in Houston. This two-person long form improv group takes its inspiration from you. That’s right, you. A typical show is kicked off by Ophelia’s Rope asking its audience one or two random questions, proceeding to morph the answers into a setting, plot, and duo of unexpected, and sometimes quirky, characters. With no story predicted, no ending forecasted, Ophelia’s Rope wanders the worlds of imagination, coloring surprising scenes their audiences inspired.
SHHHH. Wanna hear a love story? If you don't tell - we wont tell. Get ready for love, laughter, and unexpected twists! In NARC, we bring the drama, passion, and hilarity of your favorite romance novels to life—completely improvised and all in just 20-25 minutes. Think swooning heroes, star-crossed lovers, and outrageous plot twists, created on the spot based on your choices.
Cone Man Running Productions is at 1824 Spring Street, Studio 233, Houston, TX 77007, Houston, TX.
