BlackGround

Returning in 2026!

BlackGround is an all-African-American comedy troupe of hilarious performers, amazing guests, killer comedy, and a fun-filled celebration of Blackness! 


Each performance takes a classic movie with all-white (or mostly-white) cast—think Star Wars or Indiana Jones—and the performers improvise what the Black people were doing during the movie! Come laugh, celebrate, and embrace the essence of Blackness in a way you've never seen before. Don't miss out on this unforgettable experience where laughter meets legacy.
