Couples' Retreat

Couples' Retreat is a duo improv show hosted by RuBin.

Origin

Seeing the lack of duo improv shows in NYC, RuBin decided a put together a monthly duo improv show, one where they would invite duos, both new & veteran, to perform with them. The name Couples' Retreat was meant to be a starter title until they came up with something better but they never did & simply stuck with it. The show debuted on March 29, 2010 at the Creek & the Cave. They can be seen currently at the Peoples' Improv Theater.
