It's a FIVE SHOW COMEDY WEEKEND!

We've got everything from family-friendly, to kid-friendly, to UNCENSORED comedy.

And...we're debuting a new show!

Get ready for...Unscrewed Fridays After Dark (AKA the Unscrewed FAD or, ya know,  just The FAD). It's a pay-what-you-will show that features ALL kinds of comedy --- improv, stand-up, sketch comedy, song spoofs, and more! The FAD is a totally uncensored, open-form comedy forum that showcases Tucson's talented performers and our unique blend of humor. And it's BRAND NEW.

We're also bringing back the Unscrewed Family Hour! You can catch Comic Chaos on our stage every second Saturday performing an improv show that's perfect for your little ones. The Unscrewed Family Hour starts early, ends early, and is designed to entertain kiddos with a fun, interactive theater experience that'll have them (and you) laughing.

But wait there's MORE!

We've still got:
- 10 Minutes With Dawn
- TWO family-friendly NBOJU Shows (one on Friday, one on Saturday!)
- ONE UNCENSORED show (featuring House Team Big Daddies!!)
- ONE LAST CHANCE to get the early bird special on our upcoming Improv Basics class!

We can't WAIT to laugh with you again.

It's time to fill your Saturday night with laughter!

Tonight we welcome back a VERY special guest & friend of the theater - Gretchen Wirges!

Gretchen saw her first "Not Burnt Out Just Unscrewed" Show at Revolutionary Grounds in January of 2012, and started taking improv classes that same year.

After joining the troupe soon after, she traveled with them doing short-form improv in various Tucson bars, restaurants, football fields, churches, schools, hotels, and retirement homes before helping build the first brick and mortar Unscrewed Theater.

She left the troupe in 2016, and we're excited and honored to have Gretchen back on our stage!

Gretchen joins Alan, Cy, Rick, Rob - & your host, Michael Pierce, for a night of fun and improv games where the rules are all made up...and nothing matters but having fun!
