This Monday is one of my favorite Tucson Comedy shows of the year, Died Laughing! Roxy Merari of Wench Comedy produces this show where local performers bring back their favorite comedians from beyond the grave. It is such a fun show, and a great homage to past comedians. There are several TIM Company Members performing in the show: Kurt Lueders as Andy Kaufman, Jen Lamfers as Phyllis Diller, Tim Budinger and Cristin Phibbs as George Burns and Gracie Allen, and our Stand Up 201 teacher Mo Urban will be brining back to life Chris Farley. They are offering special discounts on digital pre-sale tickets! Get 2 tickets for $35, 3 for $45, 4 for $55, or 5+ for $10, and all tickets will be $20 at the door. It is their most popular show of the year, so I'd recommend you get your tickets online! It is one of the best Tucson shows of the year!

We have a fun week of shows at the theater. There are no shows on Thursday night this week, but on Friday we start our Spooky Stand Up shows where our comedians will be in costume and doing their best Halloween bits. On Saturday night at 7:30pm the show features The Meeting in the first half and then the Game Show Show in the second half. At 9pm, it is your second to last chance to catch the Spooky Season Double Feature. The Haunted Tees and then The Spoooooky Girls our live, improvised, true crime podcast, that will only exist this October.

Last but not least, Happy Birthday to TIM! On Sunday, October 24th we celebrate our 9th birthday! TIM is looking fine at nine! Thank you for all of your support as we continue to charge forward bringing the best improv comedy to Tucson!
