Baby, it’s cold outside … so let’s laugh about it. The Make Up Party is back for 2026, and this time around we’re challenging the funny people of the DMV to come up with five minutes of comedy on the theme of WEATHER. Neither snow nor rain nor heat will keep you from having a good time, whether you’re performing on stage or watching from the audience.

The best teams go home with a cash prize. The Make Up Party is the DC Improv’s game night, and this event is open to stand-ups, sketch troupes, improv teams or whatever. Maximum team size is 6.
