est. /est/ adjective >
1) written abbreviation for established.
2) A dynamic improv team established in 2017, widely regarded as a "tour de force on a tour de time."
Featuring the combined comedic forces of Tommy Bechtold, Shulie Cowen, Sean Cowhig, and James Warfield, EST. boasts over 50 years of collective improv experience. This long-form supergroup has sold out venues across the country, including The Tampa Theatre, Improv Orphanage, ACME NoHo, and The Pack. In their signature show, you take the wheel. Pick a year, any year, and EST. will deliver a fully improvised one-act play—guaranteed to be an entertaining, intellectually stimulating, and mostly (read: rarely) historically accurate ride.
