Company Mission

Picture
Up & Down Theatre is a sketch and musical comedy trio, bringing you political and social satire in our show WINNING THE FUTURE. We are committed to creating work that playfully explores the deeper truths beneath the surface of American culture.  We look at the world and say: Huh?! And then we laugh at it.
