Quick Wits Comedy

Specialties

Quick Wits is an improvisational comedy troupe that takes audience suggestions to create comedy sketches on the spot. Most nights the Wits will battle against each other in teams of three for points (and laughs) from the audience. Be ready to yell out fun suggestions and then sit back and watch Utah’s Best Improvisers turn it into big laughs.

Quick Wits performs mostly PG to PG-​13 humor with innuendo being the worst offense (though things do happen from time to time, but it’s rare). If you’ve seen a show like «Whose Line Is It Anyway?», you’ve got a good idea of what to expect from a Quick Wits show.

Here’s something to think about with a Quick Wits show. Think about a good comedy movie you watched and how many big laughs you got out of that. We can promise more, and bigger, laughs at our show — and we just made it up right before we said it!
