Welcome! The 2017 Jamaica Plain Improv Festival invites local and national improv comedy teams to showcase the art of long form improv! JPIF is a 13-hour long form improv marathon hosted by Naffy Improv and The Riot Theater. The Festival will be held from 12pm to 1am, August 12, 2017, at the Riot Theater in Jamaica Plain, MA.
The JP Improv Festival is DIY comedy at its best. Fast, experimental, and centered around one of Boston's most
innovative comedy theaters, The Riot, JPIF is 12+ hours of some of the best comedy you'll see.
Plus some sets will feature people dressed as Bruce Springsteen.

I wasn't there, but if I was there, I bet I would have had a lot of fun!

Jamaica Plain - you know, that up and coming neighborhood of Boston? Maybe you've seen a stand up show here, or ate at a niche restaurant, or stumbled into a concert in the back of a warehouse. Yeah, THAT Jamaica Plain. Well, Jamaica Plain also has a growing improv scene based around a little storefront on South Street. So The Riot Theater is playing host to the 2nd Annual JPIF. 13 hours of comedy straight, with front row seats right in the heart of Jamaica Plain. Check out a few hours of comedy, or stay for the whole damn thing. Let's keep JP weird!
SHOUT OUTS: MATT WALCZAK - GRAPHIC DESIGNER, SARA TEAGUE - WEBMASTER, AND TO ALL THE JPIF VOLUNTEERS, WITHOUT WHOM THE FESTIVAL WOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE! THANK YOU!!
