Monday, October 23rd, 2017, CSz Worldwide, the global licensors of Dick Chudnow’s famed improv comedy competition, ComedySportz®, will bring its unique brand of all-ages entertainment to three more U.S. Cities in time for Thanksgiving: Austin, TX; Denver, CO; and St. Louis, MO. Each of their now 29 providers are independently-owned and operated small theater companies that produce ComedySportz for local fans, in addition to delivering improv-based corporate entertainment, training, and events marketing solutions. 

CSz Worldwide’s President, Patrick Adamson of CSz Quad Cities, said “CSz cities are dedicated to our Core Values of Collaboration, Inspiration, Gratitude, and Fun. The improv comedians in these cities will now join 1000 ComedySportz Players around the world who provide laughter and joy to their communities. And how exciting to see them opening just in time for the holidays, when families, friends, and coworkers want something unique and fun to do together! It’s like we’re getting to open our presents early!”
