DINE!

Our shows just aren’t as funny on an empty stomach. Make a reservation for your group of up to 300 at one of our amazing on-site restaurants, or have us cater for your group in one of our unique private event spaces.

Whether your focus is pre, post, or in-show celebration, we have the resources to make your event the year’s most memorable. Mobile bars, passed apps, themed private rooms, indoor and outdoor spaces – let us serve you!

GET EXCLUSIVE!

Your privacy is our business. Make the show a private event for your group. Or, have our performers lead you and your friends through fun improv games so that you can learn how to properly ridicule those friends.
