About
Kismet Improv

RHODE ISLAND’S HOME FOR PREMIER COMEDY

​ Kismet Improv is Pawtucket’s destination for high-energy improv, standup, and sketch comedy. Our rotating improv ensembles take the stage every weekend, and we regularly feature  curated sketch productions and headlining standup acts (including performers seen on Netflix and HBO), plus showcases of the region's best local comedians.

Our theater is dedicated to the craft of comedy, ensuring every show is as sharp, professional, and high-stakes as the talent on our stage. ​

Our performers and teachers are seasoned professionals who have refined their craft at the nation’s most iconic comedy institutions. We proudly feature alumni from Second City, iO, Upright Citizens Brigade, ImprovBoston, Improv Asylum, Union Comedy, Wage House, and the Providence Improv Guild. We bring that collective expertise home to Kismet to train the next generation of Rhode Island talent.
