High quality sketch comedy.
At the time Be Kind To Strangers was founded we were the only independent sketch comedy group in Houston. In three years we produced 13 original sketch shows plus a weekly podcast, and from 2015-2023 as part of Pronoia Theater we produced 16 longer, more intricate shows as well as two additional podcast series.
In our eleven years the casts changed, but our commitment to engaged, interesting sketch comedy didn’t.
