Tempe Improv Comedy Theatre

Renowned as one of the biggest comedy clubs in the nation, the Improv has featured a star-studded array of blockbuster comics over the decades. Names like Jerry Seinfeld, Janeane Garofalo, Robert Schimmel, and Dave Attell have all graced the venue's stage and have even taped specials to air on HBO or Comedy Central. Gigs usually run all weekend, from Thursday to Sunday, and there's typically a two-item minimum for shows.
