A miracle has occurred….

On September 6, 2024, Red Hot Poker welcomed four beautiful baby boys to this world. They came out kicking, scratching, and ready to make innocent passerby laugh ‘til they drop. For one night and one night only, watch the newest batch of Pokers take their first steps into the world of sketch.

Welcoming:

Harry Lowitz as “Goosenheimer”

Nick Ostroski as “Slim de Hope”

Griffin Santopietro as “Bweef Bwisket”

Shivraj Singh as “Siggy the Whammer”

In “Romeo and You-liet”, step into Verona’s age-old feud and steer the fate of the star-crossed lovers in this interactive retelling. Every choice we make rebuilds Shakespeare’s iconic tale into something simultaneously recognizable and uniquely yours.

Join us in our collaboration with the Yale Cabaret and the David Geffen School of Drama.

Thursday, October 19th – 8pm
Friday, October 20th – 8pm / 11pm
Saturday, October 21st – 3pm / 8pm

There will be a talkback following the Saturday 3pm performance.

We like to think of this as the State of the Union, except our Union is our sketches for the last year that we are reporting on the state of. Open to all, this is directed at pre-frosh who are potential rushees. In conjunction with the illustrious Fifth Humour.

The Most Offensive Show Ever Show is Red Hot Poker’s annual season-finale. Every year, we create the most insulting, derogatory, and disrespectful content we can think of for your viewing pleasure.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

The first of its kind (in a while) — RED HOT PUSSY JAM is a JOINT Acapella Sketch Comedy show.
