Join him each month as he interrogates a rotating cast of suspects, each giving a questionable alibi in the form of a crazy character sketch.
Once a month, Heather Anne Campbell (Party Over Here?, Key & Peele, The Midnight Show, FOX ADHD, Adult Swim’s The Eric Andre Show, Heather & Miles) presents a trip into the darkest regions of her heart.
There is no show bigger than Flight 69420 and it will never happen again.
Everyones coming together and if you aren’t there you will never know what you missed.
It’s the FOMO show of the year and its happening whether you go or not.
Be part of the experience.
Be part of Flight 69420.

Big Yellow Taxi
(Starring David Aslan, Jodi Dennithorne Skeris, John Conroy, Dominique Johnson, Nate Johnson, Ashley Knaysi, Brian James O’Connell, Hope Richards, & Jessica Young with Special Guest Driver Leah Knauer)
Big Yellow Taxi is the longest running show at the Pack Theater in Los Angeles and features a powerhouse cast of veteran improvisers and Special Guest Drivers each week. Taking the suggestion of a city anywhere in the world, the troupe creates an entire universe of memorable characters inspired by taxi cab “confessions.” Big Yellow Taxi’s unique form was created at the Pack and their shows focus on smart, clever comedy with dark undertones, social commentary, pop culture, emotional poignancy, and bold characters, all within well-balanced sets of fast-paced play and longer scenes that explore deeper themes. The result is a hilarious journey for audiences with unexpected turns and a collision of witty storytelling, theatricality, and schadenfreude.
Townies: The Improvised Play
(Blake Rosier Bill O’Neill Eileen O’Connell Eli Magers Dianna Lee Dan Kerry)
Townies is a fully improvised, one act play that takes place in a fictional town, city, or place suggested by YOU! That’s right! Off an audience member’s suggestion, our team of veteran improvisers build an entire world on the spot without scripts or direction. It’s a brand new play full of wit and whimsey where unrealized passions, unspoken secrets, and hilarious antics are revealed.
The Death Match is the official Pack Theater Cagematch!
Teams spin the Wheel Of Death to determine which improv form they will need to perform in the Death Match.
Winner returns next week to defend their title and face the Wheel of Death anew.

Big Yellow Taxi
(Starring David Aslan, Jodi Dennithorne Skeris, John Conroy, Dominique Johnson, Nate Johnson, Ashley Knaysi, Brian James O’Connell, Hope Richards, & Jessica Young with Special Guest Driver Leah Knauer)
Big Yellow Taxi is the longest running show at the Pack Theater in Los Angeles and features a powerhouse cast of veteran improvisers and Special Guest Drivers each week. Taking the suggestion of a city anywhere in the world, the troupe creates an entire universe of memorable characters inspired by taxi cab “confessions.” Big Yellow Taxi’s unique form was created at the Pack and their shows focus on smart, clever comedy with dark undertones, social commentary, pop culture, emotional poignancy, and bold characters, all within well-balanced sets of fast-paced play and longer scenes that explore deeper themes. The result is a hilarious journey for audiences with unexpected turns and a collision of witty storytelling, theatricality, and schadenfreude.
Townies: The Improvised Play
(Blake Rosier Bill O’Neill Eileen O’Connell Eli Magers Dianna Lee Dan Kerry)
Townies is a fully improvised, one act play that takes place in a fictional town, city, or place suggested by YOU! That’s right! Off an audience member’s suggestion, our team of veteran improvisers build an entire world on the spot without scripts or direction. It’s a brand new play full of wit and whimsey where unrealized passions, unspoken secrets, and hilarious antics are revealed.
