Crossroads Comedy Theater is getting excited for the arrival of Havana Club in Indianapolis as part of the 2025 IndyFringe Festival! Havana Club is an electric two-person improv show created by Julian Hernandez and Taylor Gonzalez, two hilarious performers from NYC’s Brooklyn Comedy Collective. Their performances are high-energy, music-infused, and unapologetically celebratory of Latine culture.
In a recent interview with Jejune Magazine, Taylor described what he feels sets Havana Club apart from other improv shows: “Most improv shows are lo-fi in their approach. Two chairs. A handful of white dudes in flannels. That’s all that’s needed! We go all out with our production. We want it to be a memorable and fun experience, a real ass party. Not just a comedy show.” You can read the full interview here.
Havana Club is only around for three dates, so be sure you don’t miss them! Catch the show at The District Theatre on 8/21 @ 6:30pm, 8/23 @ 8pm, and 8/24 @ 3:30pm. For more info and tickets you can click here.
If you want to make a whole experience out of their visit you also have the opportunity to learn from them! Both Taylor and Julian will be teaching two distinct workshops for beginners. No experience? No problem! They will take care of you. Get a peek behind the curtain and see what makes them go while also learning something yourself.
It’s not often a New York City team comes through Indy, so be sure to take advantage of this opportunity to both watch and learn from these awesome performers / instructors.
