If you want your Halloween funny rather than scary, head to ComedySportz Hysterical Horrors. Two teams of improv comedians will face off, taking suggestions for topics and settings from the audience; the team that does the best skits wins. Today’s topics will be Halloween-related, of course, so expect lots of witches, ghosts, cemetery scenes and zombies. (Yes, the undead can crack jokes, too.)
Show up in costume and get a 25 percent discount on admission. Just don’t bother coming dressed up in a ComedySportz team uniform – that’s been done before. 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Comedy Sports Arena, 901 Town & Country. For information, call 713-868-1444 or visit www.comedysportzhouston.com. $12 to $16.
Fri., Oct. 29, 8 p.m.; Sat., Oct. 30, 8 p.m., 2010
