By its very nature, improv is funny. And our shows are hilarious and delightful. Just ask our thousands of patrons. But improv can be so much more. Evocative. Sad. Cathartic. Shocking. Moving. Stylized. Theatrical. Purposeful. Experimental. It is our mission to explore what improv is capable of, in every way we can think of.
We are Austin's premier improvisational theatre. We make up all our comedy, plays, and sketches on the spot!
Curious? Confused? Excited? Come check us out to really know what we’re all about. We have shows every single weekend, all year long, and we have something for everyone.

Coffee HouseWe offer custom shows and workshops for company events. We’ve worked with hundreds of businesses and event coordinators to give their conferences, parties, and gatherings the exciting and infective energy of positivity, productivity, and fun that only improv can bring.
Improv is spontaneous, entertaining, and fun. But like all great things, you’ll have to see it first hand to fully experience and appreciate it.
We teach several levels of improv classes, weeknights and weekends, for adults as well as children and teens. We have new levels starting all time, just click on the “classes” link for more information. We also teach specialized one-off workshops and bring in special guest instructors. Friend us on Facebook for live up-to-date information. Our instructors live and breathe improv. They are Hideout Theatre regular performers as well as faculty members. You’ll be learning improv from someone who has several years first hand experience both teaching and performing.
