Danny Canoe is long-form improv from Dan Sipp, Annie Zipper and Anoo Tree Brod. They share a love of scenes that swing wildly from silliness to social commentary. Fully improvised and based on audience suggestion.

The Mothership brings fast, high-energy short form improv with Northern edge and Southern charm—every scene completely improvised.

Expect stand-up, improv, and beautifully unpredictable chaos.

Join us, grab a seat, and hop in the canoe 🛶Anoo Tree Brod
