Dogwood Comedy Festival aims to be one of the Southeast's premier comedy festivals. Held at ComedyWorx, founded in 1989 in Raleigh as an improv comedy club, "DoCo" features 5 days of longform improv comedy performances from teams around the Southeast, including ComedyWorx's own house teams and its premier Armando troupe, Capital City Culture Club.

We are delighted to welcome Bianca Casusol (Second City New York, Magnet Theater, NC Theater Conservatory, and more) to DoCo! Bianca will teach four different workshops and perform in shows!

Schedule of Events:

6:00 pm - 8:00 pm: The ComedyWorx Conservatory

The ComedyWorx Conservatory is our premier youth program. Four different teams, featuring both shortform and longform improv, will entertain and delight with the out-of-the-box thinking that children and teens excel at.

8:30 pm - 10:00 pm: ?Comedy Game Show

Join us for a special Dogwood Comedy Festival version of The Comedy Game Show! If you blended Johnny Carson's Tonight Show with the Price is Right and threw in a sprinkling of David Lynch's weirdness, you'd get something that resembles the Comedy Game Show! It features top local comedians not only performing stellar stand-up, but battling it out in such notable games as "Press Your Duck," "Mitten Cups," "Bad Actors Studio," and the "Staircase Showdown."
