Event info

Baby Wants Candy is one of the best known, longest running and most celebrated improv shows in the world. BWC asks the audience for a title of a musical that has never been performed before, in that moment the cast and musicians turn that suggestion into a full length 60 minute musical. A Baby Wants Candy show is a roller-coaster ride of spontaneously choreographed dance numbers, rhyming verses and witty, jaw-dropping comedy. With runs in NYC, Chicago, LA and an internationally touring company, Baby Wants Candy has performed over 3,500 completely improvised musicals and has spawned the careers of top comedic actors and writers in the US.
