This top secret footage is so top secret that they actually asked us to stop filming right in the middle. What we did capture though, shows the “Torture Round” of the BattleProv show.
If you missed the last BattleProv show we did at ComedySportz, never fear. We’ve got one tonight. And this time it’s personal. Come by ComedySportz (929 W Belmont Ave) at 10pm for all the festivities. Tickets are only $5, and there’s merrymaking and drinking games after the show.
The torture round is where each team ges to pick an obscene challenge for the other group. In our case it was a mutated version of the traditional game, Sit Stand Kneel.
In the original, one performer must always be sitting, one must always be standing, and the last must always be kneeling. In this version…
Since Octavarius will be back at ComedySportz this Thursday at 10 for another round of BattleProv, we thought it only fitting that we release some top secret footage from our last show there.
BattleProv works differently than other improv shows. The two competing teams go head to head in different rounds. This video covers the first three rounds, which include a group game, two made up short form games, and the “do your thing” round.
As mentioned above, we’ve got another show there this Thursday at 10pm, and there’ll be flip cup and hanging out afterward. Tickets are only $5.
On last Wednesday we took the stage at O.I.N.K. Due to an unfortunate bit before us, that stage was covered in whiskey and possibly broken glass. But we persevered. Although you won’t see many scenes where we’re rolling on the floor. Thank you to everyone who came to the show. It was a blast, and it was good [...]
Our show last Saturday was a song filled romp through father son relationships. Thank you to everyone who came out. The video is great, but it doesn’t compare to being in a packed house and watching 6 fun groups in a row. Our suggestion was “Sears Tower“. What happened next is shown below:

On Spetember 13, Octavarius performed the third week of our run, A Hair Away from Disaster. The following video is what transpired that night. The theme for the third week was “Cowboys” and that frontier spirit must have rubbed off on the audience, because the suggestions was sarsaparilla.

This is the video from our Sept 6 show at the Cornservatory. The theme that night was James Bond, and the suggestion was disco. What resulted is show below. This Sunday’s theme is Law & Order SVU. Sunday nights at 7pm at the Cornservatory.
