A Hinge is a collection of screwballs, doorknobs and metallic actors…sharing a perfectly seasoned mixture of comedy and dramatic sketches made-up on the spot, intertwined with fast-paced random improvised stories.
This isn’t your Granny's ole Games! When you come see the Hinges, expect the unexpected—from mini-movies to blueballs, morons, bizarro-world politics and randomness! (oh, and some R-rated nonsense too…and occasional male upper body nudity.)

Auditions
The Hinges are sometimes in the market for new players! If you are a woman between the ages of 18 and 35 and you have been yearning to be set free on the stage with the ensemble, we'd like to meet you! Look at our videos on the Demo page, and come check us out at our Saturday, November 15, 2008 show.
If you like what you see, drop us a line at Adam@hingesimprov.com. We can set up a play date and toss our cookies about.
Training
Always wanted to try Improv, but don't know where to start? As you might suspect, there is a method to our madness, and several of us cut our teeth with San Diego's own Jacquie Lowell. Not only will she show you the basic skills of Improv, but a science of accessing your imagination that helps you in all aspects of your life, from work to public speaking with confidence and ease, to making new friends.
New classes start all the time. Click on Jacquie's photo to learn more about her improv classes:
DISCLAIMER: Jacquie didn't encourage our foray into the naughty, rambunctious style in which we play today. We did that by our own twisted selves. *wink*. She'll keep you decent and funny during training, and if she catches you with a potty mouth and tattoos, she'll know you've been hanging around The Hinges!
