Retire In Peace

Welcome to Charlie Smith's retirement party! It's so good of you to come. Please, help yourself to some hors d'oeuvres and spiked punch! Did I say spiked? Ooops! Don't forget to RSVP. This party is going to be killer.  by Jacob Zinke

Off Book Improv

This show uses input from the audience… and even gives willing volunteers a chance to get up on stage… as the performers make up everything right on the spot. Extra fun for celebrations with guests of honor like birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

Driveway Theatre Pricing 

$200 flat fee* for having us come and perform within the Downriver area, and additionally we will put out a bucket and ask for donations.

$500 fee for a “no bucket” performance.  Pay this fee and we won’t put out a bucket or ask for additional donations.

*PERFORMANCES OUTSIDE THE DOWNRIVER AREA require additional fees (generally $25-100, depending on how far you are from Open Book). Let us know your location and we’ll get back to you with a price!

Things to Know Before Booking

*Driveway Theatre can be performed in driveways, backyards, parking lots, park pavilions… any clear, flat, outdoor area. Required performance space 16 feet deep, 20 feet wide. Audience or host provides seating… chairs, blankets, whatever you’d like.

* Our performers will not have microphones. They are professional performers who know how to project, but be aware that if your crowd is too big or is in a noisy area those in the back will have a harder time hearing. 

* Rain Policy. We don’t melt in rain! Shows will not be cancelled or rescheduled for light rain. Heavy rain or lighting storms may result in a rescheduled show. We can’t control the weather. 

*We require at least two free parking spaces. Let us know if there are any specifics about where to park.

*Staff and performers will show up appx 15 minutes before performance time to set up
