frequently asked questions .

What kind of comedy shows do you offer in Sacramento?

We produce high-energy, unscripted improv comedy shows in Sacramento featuring some of the city's most creative performers. Each show is completely made up on the spot, based on audience suggestions. No two performances are ever the same! Our shows range from fast-paced short form games to fully improvised stories, musicals, guessing games, and themed formats.

Where can I see a live improv comedy show in Sacramento?

Our Sacramento improv shows take place at local venues like the Geery Theater, the Ooley Theater, and pop-up locations around town. We're also working toward opening a dedicated comedy venue in the heart of Sacramento! You can view all upcoming show dates and locations on our Shows page.

What makes your improv shows different from other comedy shows in Sacramento?

Unlike stand-up comedy (where one person performs rehearsed jokes), our shows are 100% improvised and ensemble-based. We create hilarious scenes, characters, and stories in real time—live and unscripted (like Whose Line Is It Anyway? or Dropout) Our performers are trained in long form and short form improv, making each show an interactive, collaborative experience you won’t find anywhere else in Sacramento.

Do I need to participate as an audience member?

Only if you want to! Our performers may ask for suggestions at the beginning of the show (like a location or a relationship), but no one will be forced on stage. You can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the laughter.

Are your shows appropriate for kids?

Most of our shows are PG-13 or rated “mature teens and up” due to language and themes. We do offer family-friendly improv shows in Sacramento from time to time—those will be clearly marked on the event listing. When in doubt, check the description or send us a message.

Can I bring a group to your improv shows?

Absolutely! Our Sacramento improv shows are perfect for date nights, birthday parties, team outings, or just a fun night out with friends. We also offer private improv performances for events—reach out if you'd like to book a custom show.

How long is an improv comedy show?

Most of our live comedy shows in Sacramento run between 45 to 60 minutes. Start and end times are listed on each show’s event page.

Do I need to buy tickets in advance?

We recommend it! Our Sacramento comedy shows often sell out, especially on weekends. You can purchase tickets through our website or our ticketing partner, CrowdWork.

Is there parking at your venues?

Yes—our venues have free or low-cost parking nearby. Details vary by location, so please check your ticket confirmation or the venue listing for the most accurate parking info.

How much are tickets?

For most of our shows, tickets are $15, and your ticket gets you into all of our shows that evening!
