ABOUT LIT COMEDY
LIT Comedy provides a home for anyone ready to get LIT with laughter. A one-stop shop for all your comedy needs, LIT offers shows and training in all types of comedy. We are so passionate about comedy that we have brought more laughter to Washington DC for over a decade.
Starting as a six-person comedy team, known as Hot & Sweaty in 2010, LIT grew into a producer of regular comedy shows and an inclusive, positive center for comedy training focused on the development of each student and performer.
Our season starts in September and culminates in June with our annual comedy festival, LIT Fest, which has featured up and coming talent who have since gone on to perform on Saturday Night Live and other notable TV shows.
