The 2026 Hartford Improv Festival is proud to present this improv comedy show featuring these great teams!
No Notes
New York, NY
No Notes are the brainchild of 4 eccentric nepo babies of middling talent. Sam, grand nephew through marriage of Del Close, performs the Harold exactly 4 times per year, to fulfill the terms of his inheritance. Jack “click clack” Schiff is heir to the Schiff typewriter fortune and off stage communicates exclusively through what look like ransom notes. Stephen was a child actor whose payday came after an unsupervised day of eating play doh on a commercial set led to the highest awarded legal damages of the 1990s. Daniel, a writer who insists his entire oeuvre will be a short story he composes on his deathbed, also happens to be the first born son of Julia and Greg Pistovici. The team practices in Brooklyn, NY (ironically, obvs they could be in Paris rn) and performs a montage.
OOPS! All Cuties
Middletown, CT
A secret government experiment designed to create the inarguably most cute individuals gave us 6 of the cutest cuties the world has ever known. Now, their mission is to bring cuteness and laughter to all those who are lucky enough to join in on their cuteness.
