Actress Kelli Maroney is trading scream reels for improv reels this weekend. On Saturday, June 28 at 9:30 PM, Maroney will host a horror-themed improv night at an intimate Silverlake venue, promising a unique mash-up of jump scares and spontaneous comedy.
Horror Meets Comedy In Silverlake
Maroney’s post on Instagram teased the event with a bevy of hashtags—#mutantfam, #comedyhorror, #improv, #silverlake and #hollywoodnights—inviting followers to a Saturday night of “horror and hilarity.” Fans can expect scenes inspired by 80s slashers, nods to cult classics and plenty of on-the-spot laughter as Maroney and guest comedians riff on spooky setups.
Maroney’s Horror Legacy
Best known as one of the definitive scream queens of 80s cinema, Kelli Maroney broke out in Jonathan Kaplan’s Fast Times at Ridgemont High before headlining Joel Schumacher’s post-apocalyptic comedy Night of the Comet (1984) and the cult favorite Chopping Mall (1986). According to her Wikipedia profile, she also starred in The Zero Boys (1986) and later shifted between film and daytime soaps like Ryan’s Hope and All My Children.
In a throwback Instagram post from Calgary Horror Con, Maroney listed her key credits—Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Night of the Comet, Chopping Mall and The Zero Boys—reminding fans of her genre pedigree. She’s continued to engage horror devotees at events like Frankencon and on livestreams for the Block of Horror series, most recently hosting a “Half Hour of Horror” online on June 7.
Audience Invited To The Mutantfam
Maroney’s event isn’t just about nostalgia. With the #mutantfam tag leading the charge, she’s cultivated a community of improv-lovers and horror fans alike. Attendees can volunteer to jump into scenes as victims or villains, or simply sit back and watch as Maroney directs the chaos. Previous improv outings have drawn both longtime followers and newcomers curious to see the Scream Queen unscripted.
“Hope you’ll join me Saturday, June 28th @ 9:30 PM for horror and hilarity!” Maroney wrote, adding that she’s “SO in!! and so beyond excited to have fun next Sat. — that, I’m hosting!” The all-ages evening will feature original prompts inspired by 80s monsters—Final Girl scenarios, killer robots and more—always with a wink and a smile.
Looking Back, Looking Ahead
While Maroney’s early career cemented her as a genre fixture, her recent social-media activities reveal a performer eager to experiment. From selling retro movie-themed merchandise on her website to making cameo appearances at conventions, she’s kept her horror roots alive. This improv night represents her latest twist—real-time scares combined with audience-fuelled improv comedy.
Tickets are available via the venue’s website and through Maroney’s Instagram bio link. Fans planning to attend are encouraged to arrive early for limited open-mic spots and a chance to meet Maroney in person.

Bring your bravest friend and an appetite for both screams and laughs—this is one show where nobody knows what’s coming next.
