An improv, sketch, and video comedy investigation of a changing, uncertain world where people call just about any problem a crisis. Featuring no fewer than 3 de-pantsings, this exciting performance will also include incredible acts of let’s pretend, a meditation on the upcoming digital conversion, and your participation. A unique evening of comedy entertainment, directed by Jamie Wright.
Some initial REVIEWS from our audience: Yelp! Goldstar.com
“Out to save the world one set-up at a time, comedy specialists Crisis Hopkins offer this fast-paced, consistently funny, vaguely riotous program of improvisation, prepared sketch, and video spoofs tentatively exploring various avenues of a crisis-happy age.” - Robert Avila, SF Bay Guardian

The Guardian laid out the early history and current revival of the Climate Theater in a major cover story this week. All of us – except for the carpetbaggers Anthony and Jamie – have had some relationship with the Climate apart from our work with Crisis Hopkins. We’re happy to call it our current home base, and thrilled that it has someone like Jessica Heidt to put in the energy to book and program the space. She’s providing remarkable stewardship to a unique local treasure, and we’re happy for her, Joegh Bullock, and the rest of the Climate crew. Congrats!
