The festival features workshops and performances by stand up comics and improv comedy troupes from around the Southeastern United States.
The festival features a Friday night show as well as two shows on Saturday night.
You can also choose from three workshops. Each workshop will be presented in the morning (10-12) and again in the afternoon (1-3). Each workshop is $10, or if you'd like to attend two workshops, it's $15.

"Marketing 101", a workshop about all the ins and outs of developing a strong marketing strategy and getting attention for your hard work will be presented by Deenie Castleberry. Deenie is the Founder of the Misfit Monkeys Improv Troupe in Jackson, MS.
"Story Time", a workshop that will help you improve your storytelling abilities by teaching an integrated method of verbal and physical interaction. The class will be taught by Casey Dillard of West Of Shake Rag and Stranger, Are You Smiling? in Tupelo, Mississippi.
"Exploding Your Scene!", is workshop taught by Houston Longino,
