EGG PARTY is a comedy group based in Austin, TX. They're a team of writers, actors, filmmakers, producers, and musicians, but the one thing that sets them apart from other comedy groups is that they're also… roommates.
They’ve been improvising and creating content together for over 8 years, and they realized that life is too short not to try to start a comedy group with your friends at least once. So, they decided to move in together and give it a name.
Over the last year, they've specialized in vertical video content and growing an audience of over 150K+ TikTok followers. During that time, they’ve also traveled far and wide (so far just to Waco, TX and various spots around Austin, but traffic does make for a pretty lengthy commute) performing live improv and sketch comedy shows. Check them out @eggpartyhouse on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.
