In a blend of bold coffee and bolder comedy, The Brew-Haha—a brand-new improv showcase—is set to premiere at Grindhouse Café in Highland, Indiana on Saturday, June 7th at 7:30 PM.

In an age where creative spaces are more vital than ever, Grindhouse Café is doing more than brewing espresso—it’s becoming a platform for local artists to take the stage and rediscover their voice. The café’s intimate, arts-forward setting serves as the perfect backdrop for a night of spontaneous laughter and unfiltered storytelling.

Produced by Improductions, LLC, The Brew-Haha marks a long-anticipated return to live performance in the region and features two electric improv acts: CatBomb and Improductions Improv.

CatBomb, a dynamic duo known for inventive long-form comedy, will debut Stranger than NonFiction—a sci-fi-inspired performance built entirely from audience suggestions and real-world headlines. Their spontaneous take on cosmic chaos offers a one-of-a-kind journey through absurd galaxies and offbeat characters.

Improductions Improv, the house team and showrunner, who will deliver their signature brand of fast-paced, high-octane scene work fueled by audience prompts and fearless creativity.

Nelson Velazquez, producer of The Brew-Haha and director of Improductions, emphasized the importance of venues like Grindhouse Café in reviving local arts.

"Bringing improv back to Northwest Indiana is something we've been longing to do for quite some time. The pandemic deeply impacted our ability to produce live shows, and finding a space that embraced the spontaneity and technical needs of improv was no easy task. That’s why partnering with Grindhouse Café feels so special—it’s more than just a venue; it’s a haven for creatives. They’ve cultivated a space where artists can rediscover their voices and where community truly thrives. We’re excited to finally return, collaborate with such a vibrant space, and share an evening of unscripted joy with our audience."
