Because we love you - our fans, friends, and family - we've decided to keep you (and us) safe by keeping the theater closed until the end of May. Let's just all continue to stay at home, as much as we possibly can.

BUT don't worry! We'll still bring you the funny EVERY WEEK. All you need is a phone, tablet or computer. And the internet. Oh, and a little app called Zoom. Maybe you never heard of it a couple months ago, but even my 92-year-old father-in-law is using it now!

So fear not! We're off to a running start!

Beginning next Monday, the 27th we've got an exciting week-long Quarantine Countdown Improv Championship coming your way.

Eight teams will battle it out for bragging rights, a roll of toilet paper and first dibs on the expired candy once we get back to the theater.

Each day, two improv duos will enter the Zoom Battle Arena and are given a random suggestion. Immediately, they'll create a three-minute scene.

And the best part? YOU get to pick the winner. We'll post the video on our Unscrewed Theater Facebook Page at 5pm, and you've got until 10pm that same night to vote for your favorite team.

AND EVERY TIME YOU VOTE, you're entered to win FREE PASSES to Unscrewed Theater once we re-open and it's safe to get together in-person.

And that's just the start!

Every Saturday night @ 7:30 pm, we'll continue our family friendly FREE Unscrewed House Party shows live via Zoom. All you have to do is register online – and you'll find the link on our Facebook Page.

Wanna try online improv for yourself? Every Monday night @ 6:30, our Drop-In Improv Class is on Zoom, too! No experience necessary – just fun and games with the friendly faces of folks from all over the place.

Already have improv experience and wanna take an online workshop from some Improv pros? We've got that in the works, too. You'll have the dates and times just as soon as we do.

Now, you probably know that we're 100% volunteer run, but we still have bills to pay even tho the theater is closed. And all our online shows and Monday night classes are FREE.

If you are one of the lucky ones who has a few coins to spare, we sure would appreciate your donation to help keep us afloat. It's easy to do online, and every dollar helps. Thanks, in advance, for your support.

Maybe you'd like to support us and have a chance to win some amazing prizes. We're selling Jim Click Millions for Tucson raffle tickets!

OH, and keep your eye out for some NEW limited-edition 2020 t-shirts – available soon. VERY soon.

To find out when they go on sale, and to make sure you're in the know with all that's going on at Unscrewed Theater keep checking back to our Facebook Page or our website www.unscrewedtheater.org. I'll continue my Monday and Thursday Facebook videos to keep you in know with what we know.

Until we can see your faces live and in person live at Unscrewed Theater, we wish you all health and happiness in our new reality. Stay at home and wash your hands!!

Stay Strong, Stay Home, Stay Safe.

Let's laugh online!

You Pick the Champion!

Unscrewed is Tucson's ONLY 100% volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit community theater dedicated to the fun and healing laughter found in improv comedy.

Since we are an all-volunteer run nonprofit, we rely entirely on donations to sustain our organization. If you've got some extra cash, please consider making a donation. Every little bit helps us keep the lights on and the shows coming.
