The Mullet

This is DCUP's combination Short and Longform improv comedy show. The longform portion usually consists of our Daisy Chain (a series of two-person scenes with a holdover character) or Follow-Every-Other-Leaver.

Also check out the two-man show: Etterly Redaculous.

In the shorform portion of The Mullet, DCUP always plays the Dare, and The Big Buckets Spectacular, where the audience fills out slips of paper for our four themed buckets. Each bucket will be for a different kind of dialogue (or sometimes character traits, stage directions, and more). Then in one of our scenes, we'll periodically read a slip from a bucket, not knowing what it will say, and act like it's the next line of dialogue in our scene. Here are some of the themes we've had in the past.
