Big Yellow Taxi is one of the marquee shows at the Pack Theater and features a powerhouse cast of veteran improvisers.
Their unique theatrical form was developed within the Pack and features a different special Guest Driver each week!
Off the suggestion of a city, the players create an entire universe of characters inspired by several Taxi Cab “confessions,” taking audiences on a journey that is sometimes outrageous, sometimes poignant, and always hilarious.
THANK YOU PLACES
Thank You, Places – a 3 act play; each act performed by a different two-person team.
Unique and complex characters are established, explored and heightened as each team uncovers what makes the characters tick and how they exist with each other.
Featuring Jay Hoskins and Rachel Axelrod!
Improvised-Standup performed by the world’s best comedians! (and YOU! if you sign up by 10:30!)

Missed Connections:
Harrisburg Improv Theatre founders Jake Compton and Paul Barker explore themes of love, loss, and longing in this character driven show, inspired by “Missed Connections” ads on Craigslist. The audience supplies the ads, and the show is entirely made up on the spot. Missed connections has been performed over 100 times, has toured much of the United States, and will be featured at this years Del Close Marathon.
https://youtu.be/eTS4bknvbzE
From Pittsburgh:
“Jake and Paul offer an amazingly patient, poignant and funny show. I am so happy our students got to see this type of elegant improv comedy.”
– Justin Zell, Steel City Improv Theater, Education Director.
From Improv Cincinnati: “Thanks for bringing “Missed Connections” to Cincinnati. We had a sold out audience who loved your unique concept of being inspired by Craigslist personals. The most common response was, “Where did you find these guys, and how can we get them back? Our students really connected to the “Dig Deeper” workshop. The lessons you taught complemented our existing program, without being too easy or too challenging. You hit the improv sweet spot. Well done!”
You can watch a full show here.
Here is our tour trailer from Last year’s tour.
Attached is our Poster.
Bios:
Paul Barker has been performing improv comedy since 2005. He studied long-form improv at the Magnet Theater, the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre and the People’s Improv Theater in New York. In Harrisburg, Paul was a co-founder and artistic director of the Harrisburg Improv Theater, the city’s first long-form improv theater. He performs with the improv duo Missed Connections and is on the cast of the Magnet Theater’s Friday Night Sh*w. A former staff writer for TheBurg magazine in Harrisburg, Paul is now a J.D. candidate at Columbia Law School.
Jake Compton is the owner/founder of the Harrisburg Improv Theatre. Jake started improvising in 2004 taking classes at both the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater and the Magnet Theatres in New York City.

He can be seen in the popular duo Missed Connections, as well as Hardly Working, Bandito, and Love Triangle. Jake also helps create and shape many forms and themes used by both his teams and others.

WPCK: Pack Theater Radio is a live “drive-time” radio program for insomniacs, overnight passengers and graveyard shift drones. A multi-media stream of consciousness assembly of a thousand tiny ideas that all weave in and out of each other and into the shadows, WPCK is what it would be like if Genesis P. Orridge had his own podcast network. WPCK is a living, breathing broadcast signal intrusion.
Hosted by lead DJ @b3oc, WPCK is housed in an isolated dilapidated radio station, somewhere just outside of New Los Angeles (a multi-verse that looks like our world but…not.) WPCK is the last telecommunication of the day right after the normal world signs off and the nocturnal world begins to move in the shadows; a pirate radio station of the Underdark.

DRUNKARDS & DRAGONS
A Role-Playing inspired improv adventure show, Drunkards & Dragons is one of LA’s longest standing fantasy genre teams.
Holder of one of the longest winning streaks in IO Cagematch ‘Cherry Crush’ history, Drunkards presents epic fantasy with a dungeon-mastered twist — a giant 20-sided die rolled by the audience determines the outcomes of battles, magical spells, and burgeoning romances within the story.
Having performed at conventions like Stan Lee’s Comikaze, at Ren Faires, and at schools, Drunkards & Dragons provides a rauccous and baudy jaunt for audiences of all ages.

WPCK: Pack Theater Radio is a live “drive-time” radio program for insomniacs, overnight passengers and graveyard shift drones. A multi-media stream of consciousness assembly of a thousand tiny ideas that all weave in and out of each other and into the shadows, WPCK is what it would be like if Genesis P. Orridge had his own podcast network. WPCK is a living, breathing broadcast signal intrusion.
Hosted by lead DJ @b3oc, WPCK is housed in an isolated dilapidated radio station, somewhere just outside of New Los Angeles (a multi-verse that looks like our world but…not.) WPCK is the last telecommunication of the day right after the normal world signs off and the nocturnal world begins to move in the shadows; a pirate radio station of the Underdark.
