Pocus Hocus: Halloween Comedy at Highwire Improv

Pocus Hocus is a live Halloween-themed improv comedy show in which the Funderson Sisters stand trial for terrorizing Baltimore. The performance combines a Salem-style courtroom drama with spontaneous comedy and an interactive twist: audience members serve as the jury and decide whether the sisters are innocent citizens or something more sinister.

The show is created entirely in the moment from audience suggestions, with no script, artificial intelligence, or second takes. As with other Highwire Improv performances, the material is made up live and will not be repeated in the same form.
