Friday Night Fun

So, you can't actually afford to go to the theater most Friday nights: with ticket prices like this, who can blame you? This Friday night, why not make your own theatrical fun instead?

The Houston Improvaoke! group meets every Friday night at Ziggy's Healthy Grill in the Rice Village Alapherd area. Improvaoke is billed as "karaoke for comedians", and is an audience-controlled mix of games and short scenes performed with no rehearsal, just like the stuff you see on Who's Line is it Anyway. But fortunately, without Drew Carey.
If you really want to impress your date, why not make it dinner and the theater? Ziggy's menu is yummy and affordable (try the turkey burgers!) and they provide a cash bar. Sadly, Houstonist can't nurse our crush on Ryan Stiles at Improvaoke, but the games are so much fun, you might just catch us there anyway.
