Open Court: All Play Jam

Portland’s Longest Running Improv Jam, Open Court is the Fun, Beloved, Long-Form Comedy Jam Open to All!

What happens when improvisers of all levels of skill and experience, from all different theaters and troupes, from Portland and beyond, come together to perform long-form improv comedy for each other and the audience? FUN!

Everyone is welcome to play in Open Court whether you have been playing for years or have never been on a stage before in your life. Teams are picked randomly and coached by supportive, experienced improvisers from the Curious Comedy Company. We warm up in our teams and then perform for each other and the audience.

Just want to watch? That’s great! No pressure to play ever!

Curious Comedy’s longest running show, Open Court is close to our hearts. A great place to play, to meet people, and to see what Curious Comedy is all about!
