Vote PHIT for the FOX Hot List!

FOX 29 is one again running their HOT LIST contest - where the winners are decided by everyday people like you - and Philly Improv Theater is in the running this year. Right now we are in third place, but if you take 2 minutes to visit our page and vote for us I'm sure we can pull ahead.

Full disclosure - they are gonna ask for your email address, but you can then immediately click a little box to opt out of ever hearing from them again (they're just asking to make sure you only vote once anyways).

Long Live PHIT! Viva L'Improvisation! And Thanks For Helping!

PHIT has a lot of shows in the Philly Fringe this year, but you don't have to empty your wallet to see tons of comedy over the next few weeks. The Philly Fringe is running a great ticket deal where, if you buy tickets to two or more shows, you save 20% on everything. Plus there are special discounts for groups, students, and show-goers who are 25 and under. Take a look at the Fringe's Box Office and Ticket Information page for the scoop.
