Check out AU JUS and The 708 on stage at DSI. Harold is a 30-minute set of improvised scenes and games, a format pioneered in Chicago by the late Del Close. Students of Harold, the late Chris Farley, Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Kevin Dorff, Stephnie Weir, and Amy Poehler, all used the skills they learned performing and watching this fundamental structure to create successful careers for themselves writing and performing comedy on SNL, MADtv, Conan, 30 Rock, and countless projects on Comedy Central.
