The Arena

About this show

The ARENA has been Omaha's #1 Improv Competition for 13 years! Pitting together 2 improv teams to find out which group is the best. Every 1st and 4th Thursdays at 8pm! Whichever team wins the votes of the audience comes back the next time to face a new Challenging team, each getting 20 minutes to win over your votes. Teams need 7 wins to make it on the record board, and the #1 spot has two teams tied right now with 16 consecutive wins, "4 Average People" and "Zip-Zopera: The Improvised Hip-Hopera" has won 16 times in a row! Will another team ever beat that record? You decide! ****We are pleased to offer this show free of charge to our Backline students and alumni upon presentation of your ID. Please note that to take advantage of this benefit, you should wait in the lobby until FIVE minutes prior to the showtime. Seating will be on a first-come, first-served basis once all paying guests have been seated.****
