Call Me UP is redefining comedy clubs and improv shows.
Call Me UP is an interactive improv comedy theatre that allows the audience to truly become a part of the show. Some of Atlanta's most talented comedians will develop ongoing storylines that evolve as members of the audience are randomly selected to join the cast on stage. They are invited or "called UP" via cellular phone...but the trick is, you don't know who will be called OR when they will be called UP ...but you can guarantee that there will be some major laughs!
Once a member of the audience receives the call, they are required to walk up on stage and instantly join the storyline. This may call for "getting into character", ad-libbing, wearing costume, using props, singing, or anything that fits the dynamics of the scene. Without warning ANYONE (with a cell phone) can potentially become the star of the show by simply improvising their way through spontaneously humorous situations. At the end of the show, all of the contestants will be judged on their performance by the crowd...

If you like a great comedy show but want something a bit different, then this is show for you. Improv is the order of the day, but what makes this show unique is that it's also about audience participation, too. You never know what's coming next, and the results are hiliarious. This is one comedy show that you don't want to miss!
