During the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, several North Texas comedians and improvisors got together via ZOOM to write, improvise, and to perform comedy sketches. During a time of such uncertainty, we came together to provide some comfort to ourselves and to others by steering directly into what was on top of everyone's mind.
