It takes years for a Broadway musical to hit the stage, but on OFF BOOK: The Improvised Musical, you get a brand new original musical every week! Each episode, Jessica McKenna, Zach Reino and a special guest create a new musical on the spot. Accompanied by Scott Passarella, King of Pianists, Pianist of Kings.
We're jumping out of order for our tour episodes because this one ended up having holiday vibes! Who could have guessed? Not us. The following was recorded LIVE in Somerville MA at Arts at the Armory on December 8th 2024. It features the key change king/helpful bear Eric Gersen on the keys, and the incredible Dave Byer on the drums. This is a very traditional holiday tale involving white water rafting, bears, and the works of Ian Fleming. A few tickets are still available for our Lodge room show in LA (live and streaming) and our Sketchfest show in SF. Get them at linktr.ee/offbook

The following was recorded LIVE from the Aladdin Theater in Portland on October 23rd 2024. It features the incredible Zach Marsh on the keys and the also incredible Kyle Stebbins on drums. If you suspected this one would be about Club Penguin, The Phantom of the Opera, and the Titanic, WOW that's incredible! You should go get a lottery ticket.

The following was recorded LIVE at the Rio Theater in Vancouver BC on October 22nd 2024. It features Zach Marsh on keys (the best) and Malcolm Craig on drums (also the best.) Get ready for the history they WON'T teach you in school (because it's wrong.)

The following was recorded LIVE at the Lodge Room in Los Angeles on August 7th 2024. It's got the whole fam band!

The following was recorded live in Dublin at the Laughter Lounge on May 22nd 2024. It is accompanied by the incredible Paul Prior on keys, and features fire-jumpers, jet skis, bad medical guidance, and a number one jam from Ireland's youth. Think you can stop we we do? I doubt it, we already recoded this one (although we did somehow lose the opening banter and part of the first song, so I guess someone DID stop PART of what we do.)

The following was recorded LIVE at Bush Hall in London on May 20th 2024. It features the absurdly talented Jordan Paul Clarke on keys, and the also absurdly talented Georgia Ayew on drums. We know everyone has been very curious about how the London underground was created, but don't worry, these two Americans knows exactly how it went down. Let us know if you want to hang out. After this. After city council. With us.

The following was recorded live at Die Neue Tribüne in Vienna on May 17th 2024, and features accompaniment by piano wizard Diego Collatti (who learned what he was being asked to do like 30 minutes before and absolutely crushed it.) Thank you so much to American Improv and Peter Graff for bringing us out! Now join us on a 100% scientifically accurate journey...

The following was recorded live at The Bourbon Room in Los Angeles, on May 5th 2024. It's got the whole Fam Band (Scott Passarella on keys, Brett Morris on guitar, and Dana Wickens on the stickens)! This one is a classic college tale of doubling down on rash decisions, math in the abstract, and a certain trademarked soft drink. If you don't like this one, you need to get your eyes checked.
