Welcome to Baltimore Holy S#!T - the greatest comedy tour in the greatest city in America.

Join us for a hilarious voyage around the inner harbor where we'll explore Baltimore's history, landmarks, most ridiculous people, and get to know each other through the lens of two very weird, very funny Highwire Improv hosts.

You'll get real history, realer laughs, and the realest look at Baltimore - not some grubby pamphlet with the same old ten facts covered in Old Bay.

What to Bring:

Yourself, in a positive, community loving mood

Friends, family and/or foes

Join Highwire Improv for a high-energy night of comedy with some of the city's best comedians.

Never been to an improv show? It's spontaneous theater, off-the-cuff laughs, and a real good time! You'll get to see some of Baltimore's best improv comedy troupes do what they do best!

Our lineup - show starts at 7pm ET:

Whatever This Is are a four person team comprised of improv experts who can perform any form, real or imagined. They use their proprietary Cone of Silence technology to devise a brand new show in front of the audience's eyes.

Lust makes fools of us all from time to time-- but leaves us with the very best stories when it does. What happens when your best-laid plans turn into your worst-laid nights? Grab your happy hour glass of choice and let’s raise a toast to our erotic follies and epic fails.
