The story of Fish Sticks is being written all over again with the coming together of the original Fish Sticks Comedy based in Milwaukee with long-standing, Dallas-based HIMprov in 2016. This type of thing just doesn’t happen as most improv groups stagnate and fade away — but the combination of two growing, active, energetic troupes of professional improvisers enables us to better further our shared vision for bringing people together through improvisational comedy. It’s one team focused on serving our show hosts and audiences well — and we know the results will be amazing.

To set things up for maximum impact, you would want to have quality audio and lighting. Audio would involve wireless over-the-ear or lapel mics for each comedian (we usually travel with 3-4 comedians) and one or two handheld mics (wired or wireless, doesn't matter) and a connection for music cues or a keyboardist/musician. We can provide more detailed information following booking.

For lighting, a bright stage is best. Audience lighting can be lower, but because of the interactive nature of our shows, we will need to be able to see the audience for certain aspects of the show.

We can be flexible with staging, but the best staging will be a clear, rectangular area with about 10-12 feet depth and about 20 feet width. Bumpout areas can be worked with, but are not preferred. Raised stages work best. Usually there is no need to move everything off stage (i.e., drum kits, etc.).

If video projection is available and not needed for audience viewing (usually recommended for audiences over 750 or so), we have video loops that can serve as an attractive backdrop.
