🎟 Weekly Friday Night Show – The Main Event

Every Friday at 8 PM | 2 Hours of Laugh Therapy

This is the show that started it all! Our Weekly Friday Night Show is a Cedar City staple, showcasing our core cast of hilarious improvisers in a mix of classic games, wild scenes, and total nonsense—all inspired by you, the audience. Want to see a Shakespearean alien wedding? A cowboy who’s also a psychic medium? Come suggest it! No two shows are ever the same, and that’s exactly how we like it.

🔬 The Improv Lab – Comedy Gets Experimental

PTQ Presents: The Improv Lab | Select Saturdays | Ages 18+

Welcome to the wild side of improv. The Improv Lab is our experimental playground where bold ideas, weird formats, and glorious disasters are all welcome. Performed by OTC members and special guests, this late-night variety show pushes the limits of what improv can be. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s ridiculously fun. This is the show where future favorites are born—and sometimes crash and burn (in the best way possible).
