WHAT TO EXPECT:
Fast-paced, unscripted improv
A live soundtrack by Grammy-winning talent
Culturally-charged comedy and storytelling
Electric audience energy and community vibe
No script. No filter. Just truth and rhythm.
WHO’S ON STAGE:
Headkrack – Host

"SpotlightCTRL is about truth, rhythm, and giving the mic back to the people." – Headkrack
BranooFunck – DJ + Drums
This award-winning duo (Menace the DJ + Medz) is featured in the Dallas Observer cover story “The Party Never Stops.” Their live sets are part block party, part beat therapy. Expect high energy and serious vibes.
"We’re not a background act. We’re the heartbeat."
Off Book – Improv Troupe
Veteran performers from The Second City, iO, and UCB come together for razor-sharp, culturally rich comedy rooted in rhythm and collaboration.
