About Your Host, Gabby OK:

Born and raised in Las Vegas, this Queer and charming story teller found herself in Minneapolis because she lost a bet. Gabby was a finalist in the 2023 House of Comedy Funniest Person with a Day Job contest, was featured as Racket Magazine’s 5 comics to watch in 2024, and was a featured comedian at the 2025 Limestone Comedy Festival. Gabby OK has opened up for national headliners like Rachel Scanlon, Ali Sultan, Kelsey Cook, and Chad Daniels. Gabby OK spoke exclusively in third person for a semester in 7th grade for no reason, but it has finally paid off in this moment.

About Act 1, LADYPUNKS:

LADYPUNKS is 2/5 of Minneapolis’s Opera Punks. Isabella and Julia are two of the under-babied women destroying America. Their comedy is unconscionable. Come enjoy improv musical comedy, which may or may not include opera, punk, salsa, hip-hop, ’80s pop, country, and speed metal!

About Act 2, Blackout Improv:

Blackout is an all-Black troupe that has redefined the improv scene in the Twin Cities. Their flagship format, Swag Hat, is rooted in honest conversation between performers on topics suggested by the audience that they spin into improvised theater. Together, they often create comedic dialogue around serious truths, and always spread joy while doing it. You never know exactly what you're going to get when they're on stage -- come see for yourself!
